Hendrick’s Head Lighthouse

By the late 1700s, the village of Wiscasset, Maine began to prosper due to its deep-water harbor. This attribute helped drive its growth as a center for shipbuilding, lumbering, and fishing. To safely guide mariners into the Sheepscot River, the Hendricks Head Lighthouse was established on the westernmost point of Southport Island. Read the history of the Hendrick's Head Lighthouse now.
