Draurough Lighthouse

Inspired by Skyrim (Solitude Lighthouse) and Written by James Woodwright

Draurough Lighthouse is a building that stops ships from entering Draurough fjord unsafely. It is called Draurough Lighthouse as it is closer to the fjord rather than the place itself.

Design

The top of the Lighthouse is a large brazier which has wood that is lit on fire and is protected on most sides so the wind doesn't put it out. Before the University the wood would come from the parts of trees that were not used or from times where the Baven Maker would make fuel that was not suitable for other applications.
After the University this did not change but wood from the University is included mainly wood that could not be used for making products in trades.

Entries

There is only one enterance to the lighthouse but there are multple fron entering the building. Once in the lighthouse it is obvious from the layout that a person needs to go up the stairs to reach the top of the lighthouse.

Alterations

The Lighthouse hand gone through two main alterations. The first was back when the lighthouse was being built to get the utility of the building correct before making further alterations, when the lighthouse was being built they were uncertain how tall the lighthouse needed to be so instead of building the rest of the lighthouse with it they built the main tower first. Unfortunately the first iteration was too short so the lighthouse had to be extended. Once this was done and seen to be tall enough the second alteration occured.
The second was to add in the nessary rooms so that the lighthouse keeper and his family could live and the gaurds who protected the house could also have a place to stay when not on duty.

Architecture

The Lighthouse is a structure of basic stone blocks with a wooden frame within the inside. The floors inside are wooden with the bottom floor in food preperation areas being tile. Care has been given to allow those who might live there in the future who have sensory sentivities such as limiting tile flooring where it is necessary.

Defenses

The Lighthouse is protected by the Gaurds as to not get saboutaged by those who want boats to crash against the rocks.
