The building was painted white with two black balls placed horizontally on the gable facing S.S.W. The revolving white light, 70 feet a above high water, was most brilliant every two minutes. In clear weather it could be seen for 12 miles.In 1986 the wooden tower was destroyed and replaced by a circular white fibreglass tower. The light was automated in 1987.
