Full description

The Irvine Harbour Pilot House, North Ayrshire.

Limited edition of 250 5 x 7inch prints.

Mounted in 7 x 9inch matt.

This 4-storey tide-marker station, referred to locally as the pilot house, lies just within the entrance to Irvine harbour. It became operational in 1906 and was the brainchild of the then Irvine harbour master Martin Boyd. Boyd`s 'Automatic Tide Signalling Apparatus' comprised of a float which rose and fell with the tide which was connected via wires to the signalling devices housed in the purpose-built tower. The floatation chamber was positioned and calibrated in such a manner as to represent the current water depth at the harbour bar. During the day a coded system of balls attached to the mast and rigging on top of the pilot house was automatically positioned to display the information and during the hours of darkness colour coded lights took over.

Fine Art Archival print.5 x7inch mounted in a 9 x 7inch acid free white mount ready for framing.

All photographs are professionally printed on Archival photo art paper
