Hook Head Lighthouse
 A
shipping beacon was probably maintained on Hook Head by the monks
of Dubhan's monastery from very early times. The magnificent lighthouse
tower dates from the late 12th or early 13th century when William,
Earl Marshall, wanted to guide ships safely to his newly established
port at New Ross. A lighthouse tops the tower, while the observation
center and electronic equipment is, obviously, very modern. The lighthouse
ceased to be manned on March 29, 1996 and is now automated. It is
proposed to open it to the public in due course.
