Dunollie Point
Description : Dunollie Lighthouse is at the end of the Corran Esplanade, on the northern side of Oban Harbour, and guides ships from the Firth of Lorne. Located south of Dunollie Castle, it marks the north entrance to Oban Bay and the Sound of Kerrera. The small circular stone tower, seems to complement the design of Dunollie Castle. The remains of the castle are close to the lighthouse. Engineers David A and Charles Stevenson
