The Lighthouse Lowdown

Episode 4 - Stannard Rock Lighthouse


Listen Later

Ahoy sailors! In this episode we cover the lighthouse that sports the best (or worst?) of both fire and ice in an incredibly remote location. We'll talk about Stannard Rock Lighthouse and how it got its nickname as "The Loneliest Place in the World", along with the accident that nearly brought it to the ground.
