Built of brick in 1858 and standing 89 feet tall, the Fenwick
Island Lighthouse warned ships of the dangers on the water's
edge for 138 years. The design of the lighthouse itself is
unique. It has two brick towers instead of one with the outer
one being conical in shape and the inner one cylindrical. There
is a cast iron spiral staircase that goes all the way up to the
lantern.
The Fenwick Island Lighthouse has an unusual location as it is
exactly on the eastern origin of the Mason-Dixon Line which is
the border between Delaware and Maryland. It was surveyed by
two English engineers named Mason and Dixon in 1751. The Light
was deactivated in 1978 but was relit in May 1982 through the
efforts of Friends of Fenwick Island Lighthouse and it continues
to be cared for by this group.
The Fenwick Island Lighthouse Ornament is an ideal gift for any
lighthouse collector. Tom Pollard Designs specializes in
designing the finest gold-plated brass light house ornaments.
