| The lighthouse as it appeared circa 1900 when James Davenport was keeper | In 1930, the lighthouse was privately owner, but was boarded-up, and largely unused. | This photograph was taken in 1935, right before the lighthouse was sold to its second private owner |

|
| The lighthouse as it appeared in 2008. The lantern and lens were removed in 1906 | This small shed-like addition appears to have been added to the summer kitchen in the early 1900's |
Subsequent owners appear to have built this flower box with bricks from the demolished station privy |
|
|
|
| The old summer kitchen has been completely modernized |
The parlor has been faithfully maintained, with all the original millwork still in place |
The main upstairs bedroom is in its
original condition with the exception of a more modern stove |
