Narragansett, RI
Est 1810, present tower built 1857
51 feet; light is 65 feet above sea
Point Judith extends more than a mile from the Rhode Island coast, marking the
entrance to the Narragansett Bay to the north and Block Island Sound to the south.
The grounds, but not the lighthouse, are available to the public.
Jeremy’s Lighthouse Guide #43
The origin of Point Judith's name is disputed. The most colorful explanation
concerns a Nantucket sea captain, lost in the fog off the point. The captain's
daughter shouted that she spotted land. The captain, unable to discern anything
in the fog, exhorted his daughter to "P'int, Judy, p'int!"
The first lighthouse here was built in 1810 for $5,000. This octagonal wooden
tower, the third lighthouse in Rhode Island, was destroyed in the so-called Great
Gale of September 23, 1815. A 35-foot stone lighthouse was erected the following
year. The station was cold and damp. The keeper and his family are said to have
slept in the kitchen to keep warm in the winter.
In 1857 a new 51-foot brownstone tower and brick dwelling were built. The lighthouse,
which still stands, is an octagonal structure. It was fitted with a fourth-order
Fresnel lens from Paris, which remains in place today. The upper half of the tower
was later painted brown and the lower half white.
In the summer of 2000 this lighthouse underwent a major restoration, carried
out by Campbell Construction of Beverly, Massachusetts. The lens was removed to
the Coast Guard Aids to Navigation Team’s facilities in Bristol, Rhode Island,
and the lantern went to Campbell Construction for refurbishing.
New galvanized steel windows with six panes of safety glass were installed, similar
to the tower's original wrought iron windows. Some of the original brownstone,
which weathers badly, had to be replaced. Brownstone is hard to come by these
days, but a quarry was found in Cheshire, Connecticut. The new stones were dyed
to match the old ones. Cracks were patched on the interior and exterior of the
tower.
The tower isn’t open to the public, but the grounds around the lighthouse, part
of Coast Guard Station Point Judith, are open daily.
