Smeaton's Tower is the third & most notable Eddystone Lighthouse. I'm the iconic symbol of Plymouth. I retired to the Hoe in 1882. I am beautiful. It's true.

It's great news that Smeaton's Tower has re-opened. Don't delay in paying a visit to climb the 93 steps to the lantern room, with incredible views of Plymouth Sound. theboxplymouth.com/outside-t…

I have a daily view of Smeatons Tower, my love for lighthouses & windmills started as a child. On a clear day at the local, the Eddystone lighthouse can be spotted against the watery horizon. I’ve adored this mystical combo of lighthouses, witchcraft & magic. Thanks @CJessCooke – at South West, England

John Smeaton’s most famous project is probably the Eddystone lighthouse, a rock lighthouse 17 miles off the coast of Plymouth. It was a revolutionary design inspired by an oak tree. It's now known as Smeaton's Tower on Plymouth Hoe. #Smeaton300

Happy Birthday boss.
Happy Birthday John Smeaton, born #onthisday 1724. He was the first recorded person in UK to call himself a civil engineer and pioneered the use of hydraulic lime whilst building the Eddystone lighthouse. Share your #Smeaton300 tweets today. ice.org.uk/news-insight/news…
