West Quoddy Head Lighthouse and light keeper's house. First built of stone in 1808, the light guided ships through the Quoddy Narrows, between the U.S. and Canada, until 1858 when it was replaced with the current tower and keeper's house. The lantern is fitted with a third-order fresnel lens. <close window>
