The North horn provided a single blast of 7 seconds duration every 2.1/4 minutes and the South horn provided four 2.1/2 second blasts of the same pitch every 2.1/4 minutes. The North and South horns did not blast together, being approximately 67.1/2 seconds apart. This facility was discontinued in 1989."</p> <p><span class="spip-puce ltr"><b>–</b></span> Présentation du <a href="http://www.nlb.org.uk/Lighthouse.aspx?id=765&terms=may" class="spip_out" rel="external">phare de Robert Stevenson</a> sur l'île de May sur le site web Northern Lighthouse Board's</p></div> <div class='rss_tags'>Tags : <a href="https://cornes.debru.me/tag20" rel="tag">may</a></div> may
