10 The
lighthouse on Hestan Island is far from being a wonderful white Stevenson
creation built to withstand all that the elements could throw at it for
hundreds of years - as at the Mull
of Galloway for example. This is more like an abandoned packing case

The second picture is taken from inside the basement of the lighthouse looking across Horse Isles Bay near Almorness Point into Rough Firth with Rough Island in the right half of the picture - all a bit bleak on a day like this.
