Feature of the South Head Heritage Walking Trail
Hornby Lighthouse的点评
点评：The Hornby Lighthouse is the main feature on the South Head Heritage Trail. This is an easy walk to do as part of a day trip to Watsons Bay.
The views as we approached the lighthouse were spectacular. We stopped to look out across Sydney harbour and we could see right across to North Head and Manly.
The lighthouse itself is also very striking.
It’s a traditional-looking, tapered tower, about 9 metres tall. What makes it really stand out is the candy-like red and white stripes which were added to distinguish it from the nearby Macquarie Lighthouse.
The lighthouse was built in 1858, following two tragic shipwrecks, the ‘Dunbar’ and the ‘Catherine Adamson’.
Outside of war-time, the Dunbar was the worst shipwreck in Australian history. Gale-force winds smashed it to pieces against the South Head rocks and there was only one survivor out of 122 on board.
The old lighthouse keeper’s house, a simple sandstone cottage, is nearby. Its been kept in very good condition but it was of limited interest because it’s not open to the public.
The lighthouse is also closed to the public. You can walk up the very short flight of stairs that lead to the front door but you can't go any further.

翻译：霍恩比灯塔是南岬遗产步道的主要景点。作为沃森湾一日游的一部分，这条步道很容易走。
当我们走近灯塔时，景色壮丽无比。我们停下来眺望悉尼港，可以看到北岬和曼利的景色。
灯塔本身也非常引人注目。
这是一座传统的锥形塔楼，高约9米。它真正引人注目的是糖果般的红白条纹，这是为了区别于附近的麦格理灯塔。
这座灯塔建于1858年，此前发生了两起悲惨的沉船事故——“邓巴”号和“凯瑟琳·亚当森”号。
除了战争时期，邓巴号是澳大利亚历史上最严重的沉船事故。强风将它撞向南岬的岩石，撞成碎片，船上122人中只有一人幸存。
附近有一座古老的灯塔守护者之家，是一座简朴的砂岩小屋。它保存完好，但由于不对外开放，所以人们对此兴趣不大。
灯塔也不对外开放。你可以沿着通往前门的短短一段楼梯走上去，但不能再往前走了。
