Althorpe Island is located off the south-western tip of Yorke Peninsula, South Australia. From 1879 lightkeepers and their families maintained the lighthouse until it was de-manned in 1991.

This image comes from the Australian News and Information Bureau collection, now held in the National Archives. This vast archival resource is the legacy of nearly half a century’s work by Bureau photographers who captured hundreds of thousands of photographs of Australians at work and play.
