The oldest lighthouse in the UK is called the Smeaton's Tower, located in Plymouth on the southern coast near Eddystone rocks. Built in 1756, its light was first lit in 1759 and it is classed as the UK's oldest lighthouse. However, it is no longer used as a lighthouse, but as a tourist attraction and a memorial to its builder. It was in use until 1877, but it was (largely) dismantled and rebuilt on Plymouth Hoe, Plymouth, when it was discovered that Eddystone Rocks, upon which it stood, were eroding.
