Photos of a bike ride from the Cloch Lighthouse

along the Ayrshire Coastal Path via Lunderston Bay to
Inverkip.

 With views across the
Firth of Clyde to the Cowal Hills.

And a loop through the Ardgowan Estate

with its impressive 18th century mansion and stables. 

The Cloch Lighthouse

The Cloch Lighthouse

The lighthouse is at Cloch Point,

three miles south west of
Gourock,

directly opposite Dunoon,

 on the east shore of the Firth of Clyde
.



The Cloch Lighthouse

The Cloch Lighthouse

The lighthouse is one of the oldest in Scotland.

 The tower dates from 1797,
but the lantern and the keepers' houses
 and outbuildings are later.

 The light was built for the Clyde Lighthouses Trust.

This view shows the lighthouse from the south,
with the base of the foghorn to the left of the tower,
 and what appears to have been the engine room
 for the foghorn on the right.

The light here is now a minor one,
given by the small light on a pole
 to the left of the lantern.

 The keepers' houses are now in private ownership
