From the Archives: Plum Beach Lighthouse

Images from the depth of my photography archive of Plum Beach Lighthouse, by local photographer Cate Brown.

I was doing some work in my archives and image catalogs, and I came across some great shots from a day out on the water last summer.  I was heading back from the South County 12 Meter Regatta off of Narragansett Beach in late summer and snapped a couple of shots of Plum Beach Light!  

I remember when Friends of Plum Beach Lighthouse started fundraising to give this light a facelift in 2003.  Details of the renovations can be read here.  It was in dire need of repair, and soon many North Kingstowners and other Rhode Islanders raised enough money to restore this lighthouse to its full beauty!  You can spot these supporters driving around the state with their Plum Beach Light license plates.  For being such a beloved local light, I have very few images of it, but I was happy to edit and add these two to my Photography Catalog.

So now if there are any Friends of Plum Beach Light out there looking for fine art prints, look no further!  Custom orders are always available.
