Description
Photographed on an overcast day with waves gently beating against its rocky foundation, this beautiful facility was known for many years as the Newport Light. The first Beavertail Lighthouse was built in 1749 and was the premier lighthouse in Rhode Island, third in the country following the 1716 Boston Harbor light and the 1746 Great Point light on Nantucket. The Beavertail beacon was first to witness the triangular trade which contributed to Newport's prominence before the Revolution. It stands as a stunning image of utilitarian architecture set off nicely by its red and white painted buildings.
