Dunree Lighthouse, Dunree Head Buncrana Donegal
During 1876 an Inspecting Committee surveyed the Fort Dunree site and reported that the Fort at Dunree was not a suitable position for the new lighthouse but suggested a position on higher ground to the north, in which case the tower would not have to be more than one storey high. Its present location was chosen.
