Calf of Man 2017

As long standing high-level heritage consultants to Manx Heritage we were asked to undertake a rope-access inspection of the two 1818 Stevenson lighthouses, situated on the beautiful and remote Calf of Man and report on their condition .

It was an incredible opportunity to access, touch and record historic material untouched in decades.

The quality of the workmanship and attention to detail by the workmen on these isolated structures was truly humbling.
