Description:
This beautiful lighthouse was rediscovered in 2002 when its current owners contacted the New Brunswick Lighthouse Society after learning that their lighthouse was considered to be an imitation. Although the owners did not know its exact identify they did know that it had been moved across the ice from an island in Miramichi Bay sometime in the late 1950s by a Murray Anderson then sold to Ellen Kilbride, the current owner’s mother. It has been maintained in beautiful condition and is used as a summer residence. The carport and room above were added in the early 90s. It is the only lighthouse of its kind remaining in New Brunswick. Location: Located in Burnt Church.
