Iron Pot Lighthouse, Tasmania v1.0

Something different…. The Iron Pot Lighthouse, also known as the Derwent Lighthouse, is Tasmania’s oldest lighthouse and the second oldest in Australia. The light is located on Iron Pot island which is at the mouth of the Derwent River about 11NM from Hobart. The square tower was built in 1832 and is noted for its top red band. The 11-metre-tall tower has a range of 11 nautical miles.

In 1884, it was decided to build a home next to the lighthouse for its keeper James Parkinson and his ever growing family. This resulted in one of the most unusual sights ever witnessed in Tasmania. Whilst the gothic style house would not have been out of place in central Hobart, to passing sailors it must have looked totally at odds within such dramatic wilderness. The home itself featured lead-light windows and a cast iron laced veranda and Dormer windows on the second level. The home was built only 20 feet above sea level and made the most of a minimal amount of land. For nearly 50 years the house stood as a testament to human endeavour until technology made the job of lighthouse keeper obsolete. Eventually the lighthouse became automated and the house was demolished in 1921. Although no-one is certain of its fate, it is believed that the home was transported back to Hobart by ship where it was sold off at auction piece by piece.
