    Does "CHRISTIANI" have something to do with anything?
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Aha! Christiani & Neilsen Ltd. designed the new lighthouse. See - coastmonkey.ie/kish-lighship/ - including... In 1960 the Commissioners of Irish Lights decided to build a new permanent lighthouse to be installed on the Kish bank. The lighthouse was designed by Messrs Christiani & Nielsen Ltd and it was based on models previously used in Sweden. It would stand 110ft tall and weigh 6,500 tonnes, it contained six bedrooms and had TV and radio facilities with a helicopter pad on the very top. Construction began in 1963 and by June 1965 it was ready to travel out to its new home.

In a companion plate ROY_0661 there is a side wheel paddle steamer (service boat? )visible. Landing marked to north side of Light on the OSI 25" Other pipes running along top of wall towards light and a larger on (See note)

    Sometimes Flickr is amazing! Earlier (??) via christopher Sweeney And in 2012 via Ronan Kennedy [https://www.flickr.com/photos/88810781@N06/8387130679/]
  • George FitzPatrick said:
    beachcomber australia Still after 1865 as there are pully wheels visible for gasometer. But different to ROY_0659 as there is a lattice beam in Sweeneys photo. So maybe the first gasometer built.
