I've looked at a map of the United States a million times and never noticed such a thing before. But I just checked Google Maps and there it was.

I knew about the side profile face in Montana.

What's the lighthouse in the Midlands? hmm

I wanted to look up the inland ones, but I bet they're air navigation beacons or something, that some insufferable smart***e has added to Wikipaedia.

Apparently, there's a Lighthouse Cafe in Dudley. I wonder if that has anything to do with it?

There's a church with a lighthouse in Weldon, Corby. gasp

The church of St Mary the Virgin in Weldon, a village near Corby, houses a domed lantern tower that was built to help people find their way through the dense reaches of Rockingham forest that once surrounded the village.

It's still so densely forested that there's barely any good footage of it on Google Street View. rant
