Full Description

E 253:
Situated on tidal rocks, Sgeir an Fheidh, this navigation light is mounted on a large cylindrical concrete post painted with black and white bands and standing at least 5 metres high. The marker was constructed in 1979 when the present ferry was commissioned and would be largely redundant when the causeway is opened.
