This definitive guide to the ten Goss model lighthouses has been extracted from the book 'The Price Guide to the models of W.H.Goss' by Roland Ward (1980). If your model is not on this list then it is not a Goss model and is some other make or copy. However, you may have a different crest, indicating a different lighthouse; even one that is land locked in land; but the inscription on the base and model number will be one of the ten listed here.
I do not possess any Goss models. Any photographs here are placed above the caption to which they refer and have been copied from Goss models for auction on eBay. For those which I have been unable to get an eBay photo, then I guess that they do not come onto the market very often.

This is Goss and is a early lighthouse but not yout usual convention lighthouse. On the base it is inscribed ' Model of Tower on St. Catherine's Hill, Isle of Wight. Built in 1323 by W. de Godyton for a chantry priest to sing mass for the souls of mariners and in the tower a light was placed to warn ships off this dangerous coast'.
Model No. 630366. You can still see this building today not far from the ruins of another unbuilt lighthouse; again not far from St. Catherine's lighthouse.
