Coastlines 1/1250 CL-L07 Minots Ledge Lighthouse, off Boston Massachusetts
The first and most expensive off-shore granite rock lighthouse in the United States was built to replace a screw pile light which was washed away after two years in a storm. Also known as the "I Love You" lighthouse because the light flashes 1, 4, 3 in repeating sequence!
The lighthouse is located on an underwater rocky ledge off Cohassett, Massachusetts on the seaward approach to Boston harbour.
This lighthouse was built on the rocky ledge following advice from Robert Stevenson (of Bell Rock Lighthouse fame) and fitted with a lantern of his design. Just like the Bell Rock light, Minots Lege lighthouse still stands to date.
