About Torbay Borough Lighthouses Lighthouse
This square skeletal tower stands 5 meters tall and is painted black with a single yellow horizontal band. It is located on a reef just off Roundham Head, near Paignton in Tor Bay. The tower has a focal height of 5 meters. Its white light flashes once every 10 seconds. The site is accessible to the public, but the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: The light warns mariners of a submerged reef hazard in Tor Bay, guiding fishing boats and leisure craft between Paignton, Torquay, and Brixham.
