Tips

David Bavin-Hobbs

September 14, 2022

Souter Lighthouse was the first lighthouse in the world to be designed and built specifically to use alternating electric current, the most advanced lighthouse technology of its day.

First used in the 1870s, Souter was described at the time as 'without doubt one of the most powerful lights in the world'.

Not only a first of its kind, but you also get a great view of Lizard Point too.
