Tengrinews.kz – Engineers carrying out repairs to a remote Scottish lighthouse were stunned when they discovered a mysterious message in a bottle hidden in the walls.

According to the Daily Mail, the letter was found in the Corswall Lighthouse, built in 1817 near the village of Kirkolm, on a peninsula overlooking the Irish Sea.

Inside the glass bottle, the team found a message written in quill and ink detailing the installation of a new light and lens, as well as the names of the lighthouse’s engineers and keepers.

“The note was just sensational, I was just in utter amazement. Being the first person to touch the bottle after 132 years was just mind-blowing. It’s a once in a lifetime find,” said Ross Russell, the technician who found the bottle.

According to media reports, the message is currently stored in the office of the Northern Lighthouse Board which maintains Corsewall lighthouse. However, the team plans to return it to the wall once the restoration is complete. Along with this message from the past, Mr Russell and his team plan to leave their own message in a bottle for future generations of lighthouse keepers to find.
