At NH 64429 46723, this beacon is 4m high overall and comprises a cast iron hexagonal tapering pillar, painted white and 1.6m high (the “door” on the N side is missing) and a cast iron spiral post which holds the cradle for the lamp on top. The pillar is on a stepped plinth, which is 1m high and 2.8m square at its base.

This beacon is known by the canal staff as the north beacon since it is on what is generally known as the north bank of the canal.
