Located in St. Patrick Park at the end of Prince William Street, the Three Sisters Lamp used to guide mariners into the bustling seaport. Erected in 1842, the first light was a single oil lamp. Seven years later, three red gas lamps replaced the single lamp. If the three red lamps appeared individually, mariners knew they were heading safely into the harbour.
