We have put together a display of classically inspired lighthouse objects including our fabulous ‘Skerryvore lamp’! All typical of Alan Stevenson’s interest in the classical world.
AILSA CRAIG Our Wednesday Lighthouse is Ailsa Craig, located on an island off Girvan. Ailsa Craig is known for the quarrying of granite to make curling stones! Its 3rd Order lens from is a part of our Recognised Collection of National Significance and will be rebuilt soon!
Its apparently #NationalLimerickDay! Here is our effort. We would love to hear your [relatively clean] lighthouse limericks!
Who needs lighthouses with a moon like this! 😍
HAPPY NEW YEAR All at the Museum wish our visitors, friends and supporters a Happy New Year! 2025 promises to be a pivotal year for us as we get to work on our new exhibition area and continue to move forward. We can't think of a better 30th Birthday present to ourselves!
We’ve had a visit from Bert today. He can leave any time he likes! #StormBert
If you’re looking for something to do on a miserable day you will now find our ticket office up at Kinnaird Head Lighthouse! The Lighthouse is open 5 days a week, Wednesday to Sunday, 10am-4pm!
For Remembrance Day we are exhibiting a red light in the form of a poppy for a second night from the historic Kinnaird Head Lighthouse, 8pm to midnight. #Remembrance2024
Last night we exhibited a red light in the form of a poppy for #RememberanceSunday - helped by @RoseheartyBB . We will repeat it tonight 8pm-midnight for #RememberanceDay2024 . @theboysbrigade
OPENING TIMES The Lighthouse remains open for tours 5 days a week, Wednesday to Sunday, 10am-4pm! We hope to see you soon!
You could have been forgiven for thinking we were back in summer at Kinnaird Head today, not that we’re complaining! 🌞
WINTER SEASON As of today the Museum building will be closed to visitors until Spring 2025. The good news is that the LIGHTHOUSE remains OPEN for tours, 5 days a week! Wed-Sun 10am-4pm.
Another evening, another sky! Never the same view twice at Kinnaird Head.
Beautiful end to the day at Kinnaird Head. 😍
REMEMBRANCE On the evenings of Sunday 10th November and Monday 11th November, 8pm-midnight, the historic lighthouse at Kinnaird Head will exhibit a standing RED LIGHT in the form of a Poppy to commemorate Remembrance Sunday and Remembrance Day.
It is #NationalNoBeardDay ! Popular culture suggests that beards were a compulsory look for light-keepers but we find that most 20thC keepers didn't have them. The 19thC was a different matter, as demonstrated by David M. Scott at Kinnaird Head c.1880. Impressive beard!
POLE STAR We spotted the Pole Star about an hour ago passing Kinnaird Head! An extra addition to the tour for our visitors. 😉
BUILDING PROGRESS We had a chance to visit the former Exhibition Area & Store yesterday. The work on the roof is complete & focus is now on the interior. We have some exciting plans for this end of the Museum which we look forward to getting on with in 2025! @Aberdeenshire
