be lighted every night from sun-set to sun-rise.

Specification given of the position and appearance of the
Buildings, by Mr. Halpin, InAwector of Light-houses:
Three Light-houses erected on timber framings coloured
brown, have been placed on the Sand Hilts at the entrance
of the River Boyne, or Drogheda Harbour. The East and
West Lights, kept in line, will lead in the deepest water
over Bar. The North Light will lead vessels, when within
the Bar, to the Long Deep which extends from abreast of
the Maiden Tower towards the South Crook Point.

lour, open to Channel from within the Bar ; it is elevated 28
