Scope and Content Noss Head Lighthouse, Caithness This lighthouse was designed by Alan Stevenson as a marker for the haven of Wick Bay. Because of its cliff-top location the tower is relatively short. It is circular in section with a corbelled gallery and simple cast iron railings. This view shows the lighthouse from the south, showing the semicircular base. The triangular-paned lantern is not original. To the right is the rear of the foghorn. As with all other Northern Lighthouse Board lights this one has been automated. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
