Pepperpot (lighthouse)

A Pepperpot or Salt Shaker lighthouse is a type of small lighthouse that has an architectural style similar to a scaled up salt or pepper shaker.

They are usually shingled in wood and painted white; the lantern and trim are red.

Many such lighthouses still exist across Canada, especially in the Maritime provinces.

[1][2] Three Pepperpot lighthouses exist in the Caledonian Canal in Scotland.

These are of a slightly different design, consisting of a short round tower with a conical roof.
