Corran Point Lighthouse

04 Mar 2023 46 34 305
The Corran Point Lighthouse at Ardgour, - an image from the archives. The Corran Ferry near Fort William in Scotland, crosses Loch Linnhe at the Corran Narrows, travelling across to the Ardnamurchan Peninsula. It is a well used service and although only a short distance as the crow flies, the ferry saves a car journey of over and hour between Corran and Ardgour. Here is David Gray and a song called 'As The Crow Flies' www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDMPrVkK_dQ

Bell Tower

18 Sep 2022 62 75 270
Captured at Port Logan, looking across to the pier and old lighthouse/bell tower. The three stage circular lighthouse tower with open light chamber to the third stage was built in 1818 and has been designated as a category B listed building. According to the Visit Scotland site the tower was designed by Thomas Telford. Port Logan is a pretty village and was the location for the BBC series ' '2000 Acres of Sky,' and was used as a location in the film 'Keepers' starring Gerard Butler All that aside it is just a pleasant place to sit and take in the view. I have added a song by Robin Gibb called 'Saved By the Bell' www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhaM84bcQCs
