Byron Bay Lighthouse has become an icon for Byron Bay and is a must for any visitor to Byron Bay. Construction started in 1899 when the site was leveled by Mitchell and King - contractors. Charles Harding put together the plans for the lighthouse in the same style as used by New South Wales colonial architect of the day, James Barnet, his predecessor.James Barnet was renowned for his colonial style towers with large ornate crowns which are easily recognized. As cape Byron Headland is a tall site already, there was no need for that tall of a structure to be designed.
