Description: Castle Hill Lighthouse Newport, Rhode Island Castle Hill Lighthouse is from an original watercolor painting by William B. MacGregor Jr., who is known in the New England area as the Junkyard Artist. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Castle Hill Lighthouse is a navigational aid for ship traffic between Newport and Providence via the East Passage of Narragansett Bay and is located at the end of the historic Ocean Drive in Newport. Castle Hill Lighthouse was built in 1890 handsomely right into a cliff face. The keeper's house was built, and still stands, near Castle Hill Cove, a few hundred feet away. The tower stands about 34 feet high and currently shows a Red light every 30 seconds. Just two days before Germany’s surrender, the lighthouse keeper witnessed the torpedoing of the SS Black Point, which was the last U-Boat victim of WW2. The good news is the German U-Boat U-853 was depth charged and sunk. Although, the lighthouse is not open to the public, the shoreline and cliff face where the lighthouse sits are accessible by several footpaths from the Castle Hill Inn and the Castle Hill Cove Marina. Castle Hill Lighthouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Castle Hill Lighthouse, Newport, Rhode Island.
