Little Cumbrae "Lighthouse"
Little Cumbrae (Scottish Gaelic: Cumaradh Beag) is an island in the Firth of Clyde, known locally as Wee Cumbrae.

The traditional lighthouse on Little Cumbrae (NS1351 : Little Cumbrae "New" Lighthouse) was decommissioned in 1997 and replaced by a light on a 36-foot hexagonal/cylindrical tower adjacent to the old generator house (LinkExternal link (Archive LinkExternal link ) Secret Scotland).
