English: A collection of dangerous ledges and rocks, known as the Ragged Islands, guard the entrance to Lockeport Harbour. Ship owners of Shelburne County requested a light to mark these dangers and guide ships into the harbour, the government approved funds for a lighthouse on Gull Rock, a wave-swept ledge, 100 meters (328ft) by 38 meters (125ft).

The original lighthouse built in 1853 was of a square tapered wooden tower with a dwelling in its lower section.

The present lighthouse was built around 1955 and features a square tower on a two storey keepers house.

In 1986 athenite was sprayed on the exterior, increasing the thickness of its reinforced concrete walls. Gull Rock Lighthouse was de-staffed in 1987, and the fog-alarm building, workshop, and boathouse were all removed. Currently all that remains is the lighthouse, a couple of oil tanks, the helicopter pad and walkway to it.
