Photo Caption:

This image from July, 1914, shows the original Windward Point Lighthouse keeper’s house. Notice the water storage tank next to the house. Barely visible next to the water tank is a horse- drawn wagon. The other building shown on the left of the photograph was obviously also a residence, perhaps for an assistant lighthouse keeper. Next to this house is a large water storage tank. If you look closely, you will see the roof gutters that go to downspouts that empty into the water tank. Clothes can be seen hanging on a line that goes from the water tank to the large bush. U.S. Lighthouse Service photograph from the archives of the American Lighthouse Foundation.
