Cloch Lighthouse 1897
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I was a lighthouse keeper at the Cloch lighthouse from 1967 until 1972. I lived there with my wife Edna and our two children Andrew and Karen who should have been born there but she was overdue and so had to be born at the Rankin hospital in Greenock and the Midwife was very dissapointed that she was not going to deliver a baby at the lighthouse which would have been a first for her. All in all it was a very nice experience.
