Stevenson, who lived from 1850 to 1894, was a Scottish novelist, poet and travel writer, whose works also included Treasure Island and A Child's Garden of Verses. He moved to Skerryvore in Westbourne with his wife, naming the house after a lighthouse in Scotland built by his uncle. The property was destroyed in a German air raid in November 1940 and the site, which still includes the footprint of the house, is now a memorial garden.
