Light the Way: The Most Beautiful Lighthouses

Bell Rock Lighthouse – Scotland

Lighthouses are functional relics of the past. Case in point, Scotland’s Bell Rock Lighthouse.

Bell Rock was built in 1807 and it’s been protecting boat hulls from the treacherous Bell Rock reef since. It was so well built that it hasn’t been replaced or updated in over 200 years. The region’s history is littered with war, Abbots, and pirates. Who knows what adventures the next 200 years will bring to the base of Bell Rock?
