Stumbled upon this lighthouse deep in the Lincolnshire tidal marshes. One of the world's most important and romantic sites in environmental conservation. In 1933, aged 24, Peter Scott moved in, to decide how to spend his life. The son of Robert Scott, who perished on his journey to the South Pole when Peter was just two. Over the next 6 years, inspired by the wildfowl, he decided to become a wildlife artist and writer. A friend, Paul Gallico, visited and wrote "The Snow Goose". (The illustrations of Fritha, the local girl, are of Scott's wife.)

After serving in WW2, Peter Scott became one of the world's most important founders of the environmental conservation movement, by starting The World Wildlife Fund. He designed WWF's iconic panda symbol and for the first 20 years was the public face of the organization.

A life well-lived, influenced by his six years in this lonely lighthouse, set among the marshes of the Fens.
