| Description: |
Built
in 1828 and rebuilt in 1876, Nobska Light is located in Woods
Hole, Massachusetts. It stands 87 feet above sea level and can
be seen from 15 to 17 miles at sea. Its signal is a white light
flashing every six seconds (between 263 and 289 degrees, the
light is red), and a horn has two blasts every 30 seconds.
Originally, the lighthouse and its keeper's house were painted
a dark maroon brown, but in recent years, it was painted white
with a red roof. |
