Our Vision
Every successful enterprise requires a vision. Those involved with the Bell Rock Lighthouse
had great foresight, were tenacious and were experts in their chosen field. These are
traits that we at Vantage value highly and continuously strive to achieve
The Bell Rock Lighthouse is the world’s oldest surviving sea-washed lighthouse and was
built on Bell Rock in the North Sea, Scotland. By the turn of the 18th century, it was
estimated that this treacherous outcrop was responsible for the wrecking of up to six ships
every winter. In one storm alone, 70 ships were lost.
Engineer Robert Stevenson proposed the construction of a lighthouse on Bell Rock in
1799. The challenges faced in the building of the lighthouse have led to it being
described as one of the Seven Wonders of the Industrial World. The masonry work on
which the lighthouse rests was constructed to such a high standard that it has not been
replaced or adapted in almost 200 years.
Innovation to achieve the best possible outcome, working through adversity, and
providing quality advice that will stand the test of time, are the foundations on which
Vantage Wealth Management was established.
