trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/111027035 - Evening News, 30th May, 1883...per this Evening News item, the lantern on the old lighthouse was then being dismantled...so I'd say this SLNSW pic was taken sometime prior to late May 1883... trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/64034631 - Illustrated Sydney News, 9th June, 1883...the illustration that appears here shows the old lighthouse without its lantern... Per the various newspaper reports, the building work on the new lighthouse was completed in April 1883 and the contractor handed the lighthouse over to the Government on 20th April, 1883...but the external work might have been completed before then, so it's difficult to guess at an earliest date...
