Corran Point Lighthouse, Coastal lighthouse in Loch Linnhe, Scotland

The circular masonry tower rises 13 meters above Corran Point, featuring a white exterior with black lantern and ochre decorative elements.

Robert Stevenson directed the construction of this navigational structure in 1817, marking the entrance to the narrow section of Loch Linnhe.

The Northern Lighthouse Board maintains this Category C listed building as part of Scotland's maritime heritage system.

The lighthouse emits white, red, and green signals visible up to 10 nautical miles, guiding vessels through the confined waters of Corran Narrows.

This lighthouse became the first automated beacon in Scotland in 1898, switching from manual operation to oil gas technology.
