One flash every six seconds.

That’s the signature of Elie Ness lighthouse.

It was completed in October 1908.
Mr Stevenson, (of the famous lighthouse building dynasty), Engineer to the Commissioners of the Northern Lighthouse Board, reported in 1909 that “the light is a powerful one and is giving satisfaction to sailors”.

The cost of the light was reported as £978-4s-3d.

It was cold oot n aboot. And the gathering clouds threatened rain, so we didn’t wander too far today.
