Marshall Point Light, at the entrance to Port Clyde Harbor in Maine, was established in 1832 to guide vessels in and out of the harbor. The original 20-foot tower, lit by lard-oil lamps, was replaced in 1857 by the present 31-foot white brick lighthouse on a granite foundation. Its distinctive raised wooden walkway connects the tower to shore. The station expanded in the late 19th century with a new keeper’s house, oil house, and bell tower, and longtime keeper Charles Clement served there from 1874 to 1919. Automated in 1980, the property later became a museum site and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
