A great lighthouse here that I have walked around too. Nice to see the grazing sheep nearby.

Thanks for sharing in the North Coast 500 Group, Herb

An interesting image and I found the map helpful with the location. I presume, like most lights, it's now automated.

Many thanks George, all are now automated and controlled from many miles away, and the former keepers cottages are virtually all holiday lets.

Beautifully taken with the sheep in front! Spending a holiday in the lighthouse keeper's cottage must be very relaxing.
