Old Saybrook Lawn Lighthouse Ornament

Old Saybrook Lighthouse The first Lynde Point Lighthouse was built in 1803 to mark the entrance to the Connecticut River. The 35-foot octagonal tower was made of wood with a whale-oil lantern placed on top. By 1832, Congress appropriated funds to build a replacement, which is the lighthouse we know today. The 71-foot white octagonal, brownstone tower has a lantern room with 12 glass panels and a red roof. The light is sometimes referred to as the "Inner Light," while the Saybrook Breakwater Light is referred to as the "Outer Light."

Among the New London Harbor Light, Falkner's Light, and Lynde Point Light all with the same masonry style, Lynde Point demonstrates superior stonework and is the best constructed of the three lighthouses.

Strong river currents and storms threatened to undercut the foundation of the lighthouse. In 1829, a seawall was built to counter the erosion. By 1831, the seawall had to be reinforced and widened.

The old keepers house was removed in 1966. In its place, a modern duplex was built to house Coast Guard personnel in hopes of deterring vandalism. The Old Saybrook Historical Society was opposed to the modern structure as incongruous with the historic tower.
