Corsewall Lighthouse (Scotland / Corswall)
If you went on a trip to the UK, then it makes sense for you to pay attention to the unusual lighthouse hotel, which is located on Cape Corswall in Scotland. This lighthouse was erected in 1815, and this was preceded by a rather interesting story. The thing is that before the construction of the lighthouse at this place, robbers often made fire, thereby attracting ships, which, naturally, robbed. In the future, it was decided to stop this disgrace and a real lighthouse was built on the cape, which has retained its appearance unchanged to this day and is still an operating structure.
