Barber's Point Light

Barber's Point Light is an inactive lighthouse on Lake Champlain in New York at a point first linked to a ferry established by Hezekiah Barber after he began settling the site in 1785. Requested in 1868 but not built until 1872 because the land title was initially unavailable, it used a regional Second Empire lighthouse design also seen at Colchester Reef Light, but in blue limestone instead of the more usual granite. Its isolated setting led to the addition of a barn for the keeper's horse. Deactivated in 1935, it was replaced by an automated steel tower, then became a private residence. It now remains part of the Camp Dudley Road Historic District.
