Mystic Seaport in Mystic, Connecticut (which was covered on this previous post), has among its charming features to illustrate life in a seaport town from a bygone age, this small wooden lighthouse.
Only 25-feet high, it stands sentinel in the re-created village two miles upriver from Noank, but has never been an official aid to navigation. Built in 1966, the Mystic Seaport Lighthouse is a replica of the Brant Point Light Station on Nantucket.
For more on the lighthouse, have a look at this website, and also here.
