I did know about Hatteras. This one in Baltimore they picked up on a crane and carried it like that, swinging over the barge, to the harbour. Looked really scary. But I reckon it was a scary lighthouse to stay in for a start. Imagine the waves crashing in under you in the bad weather…

If you want a lighthouse story, there is one in North Carolina (Cape Hatteras)which they moved back 2900 ft from the sea which had been encroaching for years, it was quite an undertaking. See this Wikipedia entry if you're interested http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cape_Hatteras
