Having the fortune in my college days to work in the Baily lighthouse, I'll definitely miss em.
Always slept like a rock when the horn was sounding only a few feed from my room... would wake up with a fright if it was turned off while I slept...

From home in Priory Ave., we could hear the foghorns in Dun Leggery and the trains in Blackrock.
