Lighthouse on Eilean Glas

Eilean Glas is a peninsula of Scalpay in the Outer Hebrides, Scotland. Eilean Glas is home to a historic lighthouse. Eilean Glas means Grey/Green Island in Gaelic.

Geography

Eilean Glas lies on the west coast of Scalpay at Шаблон:Gbmappingsmall. The island is Шаблон:Convert long and rises no more than Шаблон:Convert above sea level.

The island projects out considerably into The Minch shipping lane, which is likely why it was decided to place the Eilean Glas Lighthouse here. A track across the narrow isthmus connects Eilean Glas to Scalpay. More recently, a radio mast was erected on Eilean Glas.
