The first lighthouse in England is generally considered to be the Tower of Hercules, built in the 1st century AD, but it is not located in England itself. The first true English lighthouse is often cited as the Dover Castle lighthouse, constructed in the late 12th century. However, the more notable and enduring example is the Eddystone Lighthouse, first completed in 1698 off the coast of Cornwall.
