Bloody Point Range Lights

At Bloody Point on Daufuskie Island, a pair of range lights guided ships through a nearby channel from 1883 until 1922. Authorized with another set at Haig Point, the station used a front light in the keeper’s house near the beach and a much taller rear skeletal iron tower inland, whose red lamps together gave mariners a navigational line. Shore erosion repeatedly altered the station: in 1899 the original front light was moved inland after the rear tower was dismantled, and a new movable front light was built near the shore. After deactivation, the surviving keeper’s house passed into private use and remains part of the Daufuskie Island Historic District.
