Image description

Sandwell Gate is part of Hartlepool's town fortifications, which front onto Commissioners' Harbour. The structure dates to the early 14th century and the wall reaches between 4-6 metres high and is 2-3 metres thick. Sandwell gate has a pointed arch on the seaward side, flanked by buttresses resembling triangular cut-waters, and has a shallow arch on the land-facing side. The pier is a 1813 rebuilding of the original c1473 pier, and the lighthouse is situated at the far end. It has a square wooden tower with balcony at the top and a cylindrical lamp.
