The lighthouses of Wales are not peculiarly Welsh. They were not designed or built by Welshmen, although obviously some local men were employed as craftsmen. They are administered by Trinity House, except for minor harbour lights, yet the ‘Lights of Wales’ form an interesting and compact group to consider as they are closely bound to each other by ties of economic history; ideally the lights of Liverpool Bay and the Severn Estuary should also be included. These economic ties involve practices which are not generally known and are worth a short explanation
