The lighthouse
Balbriggan dutch Ballinacourty lighthouseBalbriggan is renowned for its lighthouse, which is the second oldest active one in Ireland only Hook Head beats it. In 1762, Baron George Hamilton commissioned a limestone pier and in 1769, the lighthouse was added. In 1860, Rockabill lighthouse was established, transforming Balbriggan from a sea light to a minor harbour light. The removal of the glass and brass dome of the lighthouse has caused consternation to the local population for many a year.
