Photo Caption:

Vintage post card image of Eastern Point Light Station showing a wooden framed tower at the end of the enclosed walkway which at one time held a 4000 pound bell. At this time a shield was attached to the upper portion of the structure to send the sound out to sea and not disturb the people in the homes nearby. This was before the radio beacon building was built. (Lighthouse Digest archives.)
