For the fullest and most accurate history of the Lighthouse building it is worth reading the article by David Hayes in the Camden History Society’s Review No 23. Alas from my own researches it was obvious that the tower was there years before there was ever an oyster bar on the site, but this is just one of the many interesting myths that have appeared over its origins.
