Stoer Lighthouse
Located on Stoer Head, North West Scotland
The lighthouse here at Stoer Head is one of nearly 200 that are located
all around Scotland's wild coastline. Operated and maintained by the
Northern Lighthouse Board they warn ships of dangerous waters and
provide important navigational information. Between 1797 and 1938 Robert
Stevenson and his descendants designed most of Scotland's Lighthouses,
including this dramatic building. The remote and challenging lighthouse
locations underwrite an amazing historical achievement. Robert
Stevenson's talented family also included the famous writer Robert Louis
Stevenson (his grandson). Visits with his father to remote lighthouses
are thought to have inspired his books Kidnapped and Treasure Island.
