Eilean Ban Lighthouse under the Skye Bridge, where Gavin Maxwell once lived.
The Eilean Bàn lighthouse at The Skye Bridge, was built by David and Thomas Stevenson and came into operation in 1857. Today the lighthouse and its almost unique iron bridge to the island survive in the care of the Eilean Bàn Trust. The light was automated in 1960, and was made redundant by lights placed on the Skye Bridge when it opened in 1995.
