Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Royal Sovereign lighthouse, located 11 km (6.8 mi) offshore from Eastbourne, is a lighthouse marking the Royal Sovereign shoal, a sandbank named after HMS Royal Sovereign. Its distinctive shape is easily recognised as it comprises a large platform (which functions as a helicopter deck) supported by a single pillar rising out of the water. Originally, the platform was manned by three full-time keepers, accommodation being contained in the 'cabin section' immediately below the platform. Additional accommodation was provided for up to four visiting maintenance workers.

Summary from Français / French Wikipedia (frwiki)

Summary from Nederlands / Dutch Wikipedia (nlwiki)

De Royal Sovereign vuurtoren (Royal Sovereign Lighthouse) is een lichtplatform met vuurtoren dat zich ongeveer 9 km ten zuidoosten van de Engelse kuststad Eastbourne in Het Kanaal bevindt. Het platform staat op de zandbank waar het naar vernoemd werd en waarschuwt de scheepvaart voor deze gevaarlijke ondiepte. Het complex werd in 1971 geïnstalleerd en verving daarmee het laatste van een reeks lichtschepen die sinds 1875 de zandbank signaleerden. Het platform is eigendom van Trinity House. Na de automatisatie in 1994 werd het beheer van de installatie overgenomen door het Planning Centre van deze vennootschap in Harwich in het Engelse Essex. Trinity House is verantwoordelijk voor de navigatiemiddelen in Engeland, Wales, Gibraltar en de Kanaaleilanden.
