Description:
This lighthouse was built in 1833 and has been a symbol of refuge for water vessels making their way through the tempestuous New England waters. Being so isolated the keepers have a nice large house to live in - much larger than the cottages that are usually allotted. Although visitors are permitted on the island (accessible by boat), the house is a private residence for the current keepers.
