Celebrate Britain’s proud maritime heritage with this striking high-resolution aerial photograph of Souter Lighthouse, an iconic landmark perched between the villages of Marsden and Whitburn on the North East coast of England. Opened in 1871, Souter made history as the world’s first lighthouse purpose-built to be powered by electricity, and it remains a beloved symbol of innovation and coastal safety.
This image captures the bold red-and-white tower standing tall against the deep blue of the North Sea, surrounded by the neat courtyard and buildings of the original lighthouse complex. A superb choice for those who love nautical themes, historical architecture, or the windswept charm of the British coastline, this print-ready image is perfect for adding colour, character, and a sense of place to your décor.
