Postcard from Ireland!

Today I got a great postcard from Ireland! The postcard shows a view of the Hook Lighthouse, which is also known as the Hook Head Lighthouse. It is located at the tip of the Hook Peninsula in County Wexford. It is known for being one of the world's oldest lighthouses and is Ireland's oldest lighthouse. The current structure is about 800 years old and is made primarily of limestone. Its tower stands at 35 metres and it was first automated in 1996. The postcard is an official Postcrossing card, IE-76393. Thanks Paul!
