Photograph - Photograph - Portland Wharf prior to 1890, n.d
Whaler's Bluff lighthouse in Portland was originally located on Battery Point. It was erected there in 1859. In 1889 it was relocated, stone by stone to Whaler's Bluff. The reasoning given was that the space on what is now known as Battery Point was needed for guns and it was also thought that the lighthouse was less open to attack at Whaler's Point.Black and white photo. Lighthouse on Battery Point. Baths in foreground. People on Beach. Sail boats in bay. Pier in Centre.Front: Portland Wharves before 1890.
