| Skye Bridge:
The bridge is in two parts, an easterly span (the secondary span) from the Plock of Kyle to Eilean Ban,
and a westerly (the main span) onward to Skye itself. Lanterns are placed in the girders at the level of the deck
in the secondary span, and slung under the main span. There are also onastic lights on posts at the
foot of the towers of the main span. There is no possibility of access to these or to the underslung lanterns.
The lanterns are listed secondary span first, then the main.
The Admiralty lists only the lights of the main span, and uses a single reference A3925·5 to cover them all. Publ. 114 ignores the bridge altogether. Onastic lights: | ||
