Lookout Tower Lindisfarne

Conversion of a 1940’s Coast Guard tower to allow visitors to enjoy spectacular views over the island, estuary, Farne Islands, Lindisfarne National Natural Reserve and the Castle. The previous upper floor was completely removed to be replaced by a fully glazed lantern, a new staircase was installed and masonry repairs were carried out to the main stone structure.
