Smeaton's Tower

This lighthouse, transferred here at the end of the 19th century from its original site 14 miles out to sea, provides a sweeping vista over Plymouth Sound and the city as far as Dartmoor. Brace yourself for the 93 steps to the top. The lighthouse is occasionally closed for special events, and open on selected dates in October; check the website for information.
