Hunting Island Light
This
light house is located on Hunting Island State Park,
South Carolina. It is open to the public to view and
climb. It is unique because it is constructed of curved
cast iron plates bolted together. This was done so that
it could be disassembled and moved. Light houses have
frequently been built in places that were eroded by the
sea. This light has been moved one time to it's present
location. When it was assembled here the interior was
lined with brick to make it more stable and weather
worthy.
