A few miles from New London is Mystic Seaport, an authentically restore
19th century coastal village. In the village is a reproduction of Brant
Point Light which is on Nantucket Island. This is a reproduction of the
first Brant Point Lighthouse, which was built in 1746. There have been 7
lighthouses at the site. There is a plaque on the lighthouse in Mystic
Seaport explaining the life and time of Brant Point Light.
Personal
Notes:
While visiting the lighthouse don't forget to head into the town of Mystic
and visit Mystic Pizza for a great lunch.
