Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. The Bell Rock Lighthouse has stood as an industrial `wonder of the world' since its completion in 1811. The iconic tower on the Inchcape Rock, twelve miles from Arbroath, is the oldest sea-washed tower in the world having been lashed by the seas for over 200 years. Her earlier cousins were all taken by the waves or replaced. The construction of the Bell Rock not only proved the Northern Lighthouse Board had reached maturity, but it made the name of the Stevenson family of lighthouse engineers: a dynasty that dominated Scottish lighthouses for 150 years. Robert Stevenson was the first man on the reef and the last man off, a personal commitment which has seen the Bell Rock's actual Chief Engineer - John Rennie - almost deleted from the station's history. Not only was it a remarkable feat of engineering, but one which played host to a remarkable way of life. The light-keepers undertook their nightly vigils at the station for 177 years, their often mundane and monotonous duties occasionally being punctuated by technological improvement and world events. The keepers are now all gone, but the Bell Rock continues to show its familiar flash, guiding the mariner to safety. A lavishly illustrated history of the iconic Bell Rock lighthouse which has stood as an industrial wonder of the world since its completion in 1811.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Before the age of the lighthouse Scotlands untamed seas and perilous rocky coast too often witnessed the watery end to the mariners voyage. From its establishment in 1786, it was the remit of the Northern Lighthouse Board to tame these harsh seas with the building of guiding lights around Scotlands rugged coast For the Safety of All.The history of Scotlands lighthouses would be dominated by one family of engineers. For its first 150 years, the NLB would be shaped by four generations of the Stevenson family as lighthouse builders, innovators and inventors. From humble beginnings at Kinnaird Head, this family would perfect the engineering marvels of the Bell Rock and Skerryvore, and pioneer wireless technologies into the modern age.The lighthouse story is also one of habitation on the Stevensons creations on the extremities of civilisation as the light-keepers, and their families, lived and served on the wind-battered terrain of Scotlands edge. It was a story of survival, a unique way of life, which came and went within the pages of this history. The technological breakthroughs which began with the Stevensons advanced to automation and the end of the light-keeper.Nowadays the lights still flash, but theres nobody there. A fascinating pictorial history of Scottish lighthouses. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. On the promontory of Kinnaird Head, on the north-east coast of Scotland, sits a peculiarly designed lighthouse. It is an exception in history - the only lighthouse in the world to be built into a castle. Originally constructed in 1571 by Sir Alexander Fraser, the castle towered over his new town of Fraserburgh with Scotlands forgotten university built in its shadow. For 200 years this small tower played host to lairds, lords and Jacobites before abandonment in 1750.The castle was saved from ruin in 1787 when the newly formed Northern Lighthouse Board transformed it into their first Scottish lighthouse. Every Stevenson engineer visited and left their mark on the site, while a never-ending watch of keepers kept the light flashing for 200 years.With automation in 1991 there was a second abandonment of the old tower, until it made its latest transition from lighthouse to museum. Since 1995 it has been Scotlands most visited lighthouse, frozen in time as a monument to the manned lighthouses of old. Michael Strachan tells the story of one of Scotland's great tourist attractions, with a wealth of previously unpublished images.
