Ratlin East Lighthouse.

Ratlin East Lighthouse.
Come and join me on a walk over the wild Ratlin Island situated some six miles from the mainland of County Antrim, Northern Island. Here on the east side we find one of the Islands two lighthouses. It was requested in 1827 but work did not start till twenty two years later. In 1995 it was finally converted to electric operation and the keeper withdrawn from the station.

Pip shows the harbour. More info: www.irishlights.ie/tourism/our-lighthouses/rathlin-east.aspx

That is some drop and you can see just why a light house is so important on a coast like this. Love the mood in those clouds.

Great to see you admiring another of my County Antrim shots Peter. You realise of course, that presentation makes a difference. Was a great isolated corner here.
