A different view of the well know Lochindaal lighthouse near Port Charlotte, made by the “old” Persabus Pottery. You could put a tealight or small candle inside to light it. Sadly mine has since broken and as the pottery isn’t making these any more I haven’t been able to replace it.

They also made a similar one of the Round Church in Bowmore, something I still have and treasure.

Mainly picked this picture for the flying sparks and their reflection on the water. Taken back in 2007 when the old pier at Port Askaig was being demolished during the expansion and rebuilding of the pier and harbour facilities at Port Askaig.
