Corsewall Lighthouse (Scotland / Corswall)
If you went on a trip to the UK, then it makes sense to you to pay attention to the unusual hotel-lighthouse, which is located on Cape Corswall in Scotland. This lighthouse was erected in 1815, and this was preceded by a rather interesting story. The thing is that before the construction of the lighthouse at this place, robbers often fired, thereby attracting ships that, of course, were robbed. In the future, this disgrace was decided to stop and a real lighthouse was built on the cape, which has retained its appearance unchanged to this day and is still an existing building.
