Scotsman Walking Wearing Kilt By Lighthouse On Summer History Visit To Ailsa Craig Scotland

Tour Scotland short 4K Summer travel video clip of a Scotsman wearing a kilt and Sporran and walking near the lighthouse on the coast of the island of Ailsa Craig, Firth of Clyde, Britain, United Kingdom. Rising steeply out of the sea to an elevation of 1,114 feet, this striking island landmark is nicknamed Paddy's Milestone because it sits roughly halfway between Glasgow and Belfast, serving as a geographic marker for traditional sea routes. The lighthouse was completed in 1886, the construction being overseen by Thomas and David Alan Stevenson. Initially, the lighthouse used oil-burning lamps, but by 1911, these were replaced with incandescent lighting.
