Description
The lighthouse was built on Ocracoke Island, North Carolia in 1823. It replaced an earlier structure destroyed by lightning. For many years, Ocracoke Inlet was the only practical way for ships to reach the port cities of Elizabeth City, New Bern, and Edenton. This lighthouse was built by Massachusetts builder Noah Porter.
