The Davaar Lighthouse was completed in 1854 and is listed as being of Architectural/Historic interest.
Davaar is an Island only at high tide situated at the mouth of Campbeltown Loch. It is linked to the mainland by the Dhorlin, a bank of shingle which can be crossed at low tide.
A revolving white light was though to be the best possible distinction for Davaar and the character in 1854 was one flash every ½ minute. The light used a mercury vapour lamp in conjunction with catoptric mirrors driven by clockwork machinery. The station had a secomac electric siren fog signal with flap value shutters.
The Lighthouse was automated in 1983.
