Spitbank
Spitbank Lighthouse, built in 1853, stands on a mudbank in Cork Harbour. It was constructed using a pioneering screw-pile technology developed by the blind Irish engineer Alexander Mitchell. The lighthouse replaced an earlier beacon and has since been an essential guide for ships entering one of Ireland’s most important natural harbors. Despite its remote location, Spitbank remains a testament to innovative engineering.
