ICE re-lights iconic lighthouse
To celebrate the 250th anniversary of the famous Smeaton Tower in Plymouth, the lighthouse was re-lit as it was when first built in 1759 - by candle light.

ICE historian Mike Chrimes spoke to the gathering about the construction of the lighthouse and the life of John Smeaton.
