Souter lighthouse extra facts

  • Description

    Souter lighthouse was built by James Douglass in 1871, at the cost of £8000. The lighthouse is located near a village named Marsden. Unfortunately, the village was destroyed in the 1960s. Souter Lighthouse was actually built on Lizard Point. The lighthouse was decommissioned in 1988 and then used for radio navigation. The lighthouse guided sailors for over 100 years. Finally in 1999 the lighthouse closed down.
