Above, Wolf Rock Lighthouse, 8 Miles Of the coast at lands end Cornwall, completed 1870
Above and below Bishops Rock Lighthouse, of the coast of The Isle of Scilly in Scotland, completed 1858
Don't you just love Rock Lighthouses ! predominately built during the eighteen hundreds on the isolated rocky outcrops which surround Great Britian. Bell Rock Lighthouse (not pictured) is one of the earliest examples, completed in 1811; it is considered one of The Seven wonders of the Industrial World. These structures have stood the test of time, I wonder if off shore structures built today such as oil riggs and beacons will do so well, I doubt it !
