Afrer many memorable moments working on The Royal Sovereign Lighthouse, HERBOSCH-KIERE marked the end of two years of careful planning and hard work with the announcement that the iconic lighthouse has now been officially decommissioned!

HERBOSCH-KIERE are deeply grateful to Trinity House for entrusting them to carry out this important work to protect the waters and shipping. It was always more than just a guide for seafarers the lighthouse has held a firm place in people’s hearts.
