Please note that for Skervuile Lighthouse Tower, such is the underwater geographic dynamic here, that there are two distinct elements to the lighthouse buildings. The main tower is set offshore at the subsea hazard. But there is no room for the lighthouse keepers’ to live at the actual tower building.

It should also be pointed out that the Skervuile Lighthouse Tower is still fully operational and is NOT for sale. It is the shore station – former lighthouse keeper’s dwelling – that is for sale…

Following the automation of the lighthouse towers, and the phased retirement of lighthouse keepers, places such as the Skervuile Lighthouse Shore Station became surplus to the requirements of the Northern Lighthouse Board and passed into private ownership.

The Skervuile Shore Station Light Houses are located at Lowlandman’s Bay on the Isle of Jura. The property has been converted into a single but large three storey residential property. It originally comprised three flats to accommodate the lighthouse keeper and two assistants manning the Skervuile Light. The actual lighthouse tower is still operational and not included in the sale.
