Eilean Glas Lighthouse (page 2)
 |
To
the Left is an example of the walled gardens
that were used to produce wide and varied crops
for the lighthouse keepers. The walled areas
were essential to protect the crops from the
biting winds that pound the area.

The
beach area is often littered with various items
washed up by the sea, it is amazing some of
the things you find.
|
 |
 |
Some
of the views from this area are outstanding.
Here, in the distance, you can see the Shant
Isles.
|
|
Once
past the beach area you start the climb up to
the lighthouse passing the jetty on the right
where supplies were landed.
|
 |
 |
Slightly
up from the jetty is a hut which I assume was
used for storage.
