Am trying to finish a local quiz from Wells Next the Sea.
Halfway up Staithe Street is a building with The Pet Store on the ground floor. The building was built for F E Smith a prominent Wells merchant and ship owner who had a lantern tower added to the roof. What did he use the tower for?
Any local history people know?

If he was a ship owner I would assume to hold a lantern for guiding his ships into harbour, is there a light house nearby to Wells?

From IAMA "A lattice structure, tube or mast used in a light vessel or light float or at a shore-based light, to carry the lantern."
