Ardtornish

Ardtornish is a solar powered LED lantern lighthouse built in 2001.

History

The original Ardtornish lighthouse was established by David Stevenson in 1927. It was a cast iron octagonal tower on Ardtornish Point, a headland jutting out into the Sound of Mull.  In 2001, it was replaced with the current structure – a skeletal tower clad with white aluminium panels.
