Beeves Rock, Shannon Estuary
Position 52 39.0N 09 01.3W Built 1855	Date unwatched February 11 1933	Range of light: W 12nm R 9nm
	Beeves Rock is not easy to see, as there aren't any roads that go near it. Unless you get a boat like I did you will need a very long telephoto lens. Got lucky with this one, a phone call was made on my behalf by Shannon Estuary Ports in Limerick to Shannon Workboats who took me in a fast boat up river to it. I personally love #31A, it so looks like a strange sort of boat. Work on building it was slow, as they workmen could only be there when the tide was out. That was the reason for the building of the lighthouse, a rock that submerged at high tide like some monster from the deep If you would like a print of any of these please contact me
#31A in the postcard series, shows wildness of the location		JEP 275
