Old Photograph Dunnet Head Scotland
Old photograph of Dunnet Head, Caithness, Scotland. Near the Dunnet Head lighthouse are minor fortifications built during World War II to protect the naval base at Scapa Flow, including a Chain Home Low radar station and a bunker used by the Royal Observer Corps during the Cold War. The lighthouse stands on the cliff top of Easter Head on Dunnet Head. Dunnet Head Lighthouse is 66 feet tall and was built in 1831 by Robert Stevenson, grandfather of Robert Louis Stevenson. Blog post of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to travel and visit one day.
