| The Port Fairy lighthouse from near the cottages |
Just browsing the Victorian Collections site, and their Featured Story - Lighthouses: the romance and tne reality by Catherine Bessant caught my eye. Scanning their images and the stories, I came across this old postcard depicting the Port Fairy lighthouse on Griffith Island, only this image had the keepers cottages still standing (the buildings were demolished in 1956, now only a replica gateway remains) |
| Postcard from the Port Fairy Historical Society Museum and Archives |
The only other picture I'd seen of the cottages was a very vague photo on the information board at the site
 |
| The lighthouse & cottages c1915 |
However the information board did include a map showing the outlines of the buildings. |
| The lighthouse would be to the bottom of the map |
