The Guilderton Lighthouse is the only major navigation light between Fremantle and Jurien Bay, and is also the last lighthouse to be built in Western Australia. The Guilderton Lighthouse is constructed from specially tapered red clay bricks in 1983. It stands 32 metres high and the base is 7.5 metres in diameter. The Guilderton Lighthouse was never manned. A fantastic online read of the Guilderton Lighthouse is available at www.lighthouse.net.au/lights/wa/Guilderton/Guilderton.htm
Lighthouses are a part of our history that we need to tell the stories to our children about. We may be a strange family, but everytime we go into the township of Guilerton in the Shire of Gingin, we always get excited to see the lighthouse from a distance. Be careful travelling closer to the lighthouse as the road is unmade. A spectacular site.

More Local Legends
April 16th, 2010 by Rona ChieraIt has occured to me whilst enjoying a new way of communicating about our region Gingin, that our community is not complete unless I showcase our local legends that tirelessly work behind the scenes to make our community home. Just like you’ll see at the Gingin Expo, the great volunteers that will both coordinate and participate in the Gingin Expo, just like Jane Taylor, who is always putting her hand up to help. Let me know who is one of your local legends in the Shire of Gingin. Do we have more local legends per capital than any other shire?
