Dubh Artach (gaelic for 'the Black Rock') is a remote rock 15 miles SW from the Ross of Mull and 18 miles west of Colonsay. The lighthouse was designed by Thomas Stevenson (father of Robert Louis) and was first lit in 1872. One of the Stevensons' finest achievements - the lighthouse was a real feat of engineering. A shore station was set up on the island of Earraid for the construction of the lighthouse prior to works commencing on the rock. Construction began on the rock itself in 1867 and work was only possible over the summer months. An iron barracks sitting on open metal legs was used to house the workers on the rock during construction. At one point the summer storms brought waves crashing on the roof of the barracks 77 feet (23 m) above sea level and 14 workers were trapped inside for 5 days – the waves broke open the door to the barracks and soaked those inside, ruining their provisions in the process. Robert Louis Stevenson visited both Earraid and the construction works on the rock itself. He describes the situation in the barracks “The men sat high up prisoned in their iron drum, that then resounded with the lashings of the sprays ... It was then that the foreman builder, Mr. Goodwillie, whom I see before me in his rock-habit of indecipherable rags, would get his fiddle down and strike up human minstrelsy amid the music of the storms” He also describes the rock as "an ugly reef this . . . no pleasant assemblage of shelves, and pools, and creeks, about which a child might play for a whole summer without weariness . . . but one oval nodule of black-trap, sparsely bedabbled with an inconspicuous fucus, and alive in every crevice with an insect between a slater and a bug. No other life was there but that of sea-birds, and of the sea itself, that here ran like a millrace, and growled about the outer reef for ever, and ever and again, in the calmest weather, roared and spouted on the rock itself”. Dubh Artach was an unpopular posting for lightkeepers due to its hostile location (which meant frequently delayed reliefs) and the cramped conditions inside the tower. This was part of the reason that it was one of the first offshore lighthouses to be automated in 1971. A helicopter pad was also constructed at the same time to avoid landings by boat. The lighthouse continues to function and it visited annually by NLB engineers for maintenance work.
