    6335 Rhins of Galloway Lighthouse Booklet 200X110

    Lighthouse Guide Discover the aids to navigation on the Rhins of Galloway Coast Path Since people first ventured out on perilous journeys across the sea many attempts have been made to build landmarks warning sailors of dangers or guiding them to safety. This guide will help you discover lighthouses, foghorns and beacons along the Rhins of Galloway Coast Path as well as reveal some of the ships that have been wrecked on the rugged shore. This Lighthouse Guide has been produced as part of the Rhins of Galloway Coast Path project managed by Dumfries and Galloway Council. Portpatrick Cover: Corsewall Lighthouse How to use this guide The 3 operational Lighthouses on the Rhins are important features on the coastal landscape, managed by the Northern Lighthouse Board to perform a vital role in keeping mariners safe in all weathers. Discover a variety of navigational aids many of which are designated as listed buildings. Get up close with lighthouse tours and an exhibition at the Mull of Galloway Lighthouse or admire at a distance decommissioned lighthouses and redundant beacons. The map at the back of the guide shows you the location of these visually striking reminders of how dangerous the rocky coast of the Rhins can be to mariners. Killantringan Lighthouse Mull of Galloway Lighthouse Designed by Robert Stevenson and first lit in 1830, the Mull of Galloway Lighthouse is perched on Scotland’s most southerly point. It was automated in 1987 and the former Lightkeepers’ accommodation are now managed as self-catering holiday 1 cottages.
