It seems we keep going to Cape Wrath for pictures for our Christmas issue. Cape Wrath in this picture is looking like a giant Christmas decoration but in fact is only doing its everyday vigil. This magnificent lighthouse is located on the far northwest corner of mainland Scotland. If you ever get a chance in the summer to take the ferry and then the little bus to see this light you should do it..

Our beautiful picture is from a back issue of the Northern Lighthouse Board's quarterly bulletin.

An exciting book about 31 of the best scottish lighthouses explained in insightful text and magnificent colour photographs is available here.
