{"product_id":"neist-point-lighthouse-isle-of-skye-western-scotland","title":"'Neist Point Lighthouse' - Isle of Skye - Western Scotland","description":"Neist Point is one of the most famous lighthouses in Scotland and can be found on the most westerly tip of Skye near the township of Glendale.\r\nWhile the walk down is an easy one, the concrete path does get quite steep at times. From the path you will see stunning views of the high cliffs and the lighthouse itself, at sunset the view is made even more spectacular making this a top destination for landscape photographers.\r\n\r\nNeist Point Lighthouse, designed by David Alan Stevenson, was first lit on 1 November 1909. An aerial cableway is used to take supplies to the lighthouse and cottages and the cableway is still used to take supplies to the cottages which are now available as a self catering facility.\r\n\r\nMr W Hugh MacDonald from Oban was the building contractor for the lighthouse and dwellings which cost £4,350 at that time. The fog signal, which has since been discontinued, was not completed until 1910. Neist Point lighthouse was automated in 1990.\r\nThe tower is 19 metres high and has a range of 16 miles. The station is located on the North East corner of the Isle of Skye near Waterstein. The only access is by foot but the 45 minute walk is worth it to see the beautiful facility and the surrounding views. \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThis piece of Art is made from - Archival 310gsm Baryta Photographic Paper, Acid Free Double Mount, Black Solid Wood Frame, Anti-reflective Acrylic Glazing, Acid Free Mounting Board behind the photograph and a 2mm backing Board.
