Not all Lighthouses are Tall!
Port Clinton (Portage River) Breakwater
(station established 1832)
Inactive since early 1960's. 20 ft (6 m) white square pyramidal wood tower, formerly located at the end of the breakwater on the east side of the Portage River entrance, relocated in 1964 to a marina upstream. The keeper's house (1901), substantially modified, is now the Garden Restaurant. Stephen Conn's photo is at right, Anderson's page has excellent historical information, Richardson and Klein have excellent closeup photos, the Coast Guard has a 1904 photo, and Google has a satellite view. The "pepperpot" form of this little lighthouse is very common in Canada. At one time there were many similar lighthouses on the U.S. side of the Great Lakes, but this is one of only two surviving U.S. examples of the type (the other is at Two Rivers in Eastern Wisconsin). Located in Brand's Marina off OH 163 just west of the bridge in downtown Port Clinton. Site open, tower closed. Owner/site manager: Brand's Marina. ARLHS USA-914.
