The Low Light (dis) [NAT]

OS 1:10,000 map, 1976.

The 'low light' was built in 1844 to display a fixed light to the N. An attractive feature is the cast-iron panelling that fills the solid blind facets of the lantern; each has a pretty picture cut in relief. Now disused as a lighthouse, this building is a bird observatory and field station of the Midlothian Ornithological Club.

D [B] Hague 1965.
