Round Island Lighthouse stands on Round Island in the Isles of Scilly, United Kingdom. Designed by William Tregarthen Douglass for Trinity House, the granite and stone tower, 19 metres high, was completed in 1887 as one of three lights in the islands. It was modernised in 1966 and automated in 1987, and is a Grade II listed building. The island is now a Site of Special Scientific Interest managed by the Isles of Scilly Wildlife Trust, where landing is generally not permitted.
