    Conservatory with Christmas tree
    Carla Jayne R.

    This mansion is full of beautiful furniture, artwork, and artifacts. We were lucky to visit when Christmas decorations were in place, adding to a festive environment. Downloading an app to guide you through this home made the tour that much more enjoyable and historical. It was lovely and I definitely recommend a visit.

    Step back in time to this beautiful mansion in downtown Bristol RI. The mansion and the grounds are absolutely gorgeous. The people who volunteer and work at Linden Place are so nice and very knowledgeable. Linden place put on a lot of different events and everyone I have been to is amazing, so organized and very fun! Monday, I just went to the 4th of July picnic to watch the parade and it was a wonderful event. It was nice and casual and the mansion was open for tours. Every event they have there is definitely worth the price!! My favorite events, just to name a few, the Burger Bash, Derby Day and now the July 4th Picnic! Wonderful place that is a step back in time and teaches you the history of Bristol!!

    This was the bridal (and bridal party) dressing room upstairs. So cute, vintage, and cozy!

    Hog Island Lighthouse - Whoops, don't think I'm suppose to be in this guy's yard.

    A lonely little…read morecoffee pot Hog Island Light is a lonely little lighthouse that few people get to see up close. It's located about a third of a mile southeast of Hog Island and north of the Newport Bridge and most of the boat traffic. Distance views can be seen from the Mount Hope Bridge and a few places in Portsmouth but you really need a small boat to get good views. The area south of Hog Island has treacherous shoals and rocks so it was decided back in 1838 to place a small buoy as a warning. This of course didn't work so in 1866 a small lightship was anchored there and then replaced by a larger lightship in 1886. Lightships were always at high risk and deteriorated quickly so in 1901 at real lighthouse was constructed. This is the newest light in Rhode Island and is a very generic design that was popular at the time. Called spark plugs or coffee pots because of there shapes, these lights certainly weren't as aesthetically beautiful as the earlier lights but were cheap and strong as hell. There are three other lights in RI that look a lot like it and they actually are well designed with five levels inside to house the keeper and all the equipment. The light is about 60 feet tall and never had a real dock. That means anyone trying to get on the light has to climb from a boat up a ladder and then into the light. Not as easy as it sounds in crappy weather and nasty falls were always a possibility. Interestingly tons of granite was placed around the light to protect it from ice flows even though I have seldom seen much ice in the area. I suspect the weather was quite a bit cooler back when the light was built. The lighthouse was automated in 1964 and is now a private dwelling. Nobody actually lives in the lighthouse but it was bought by a couple from South Dakota in 2006 for 165,000 dollars. Part of the deal is that they have to do the maintenance and keep it looking nice but exactly what they do with the light is unknown. Having your own private chunk of maritime history would be nice and It certainly is a very cool place to hang out and spend some time.

    The first light on this site was built in 1827 and stands on Warwick Point at the southern tip of…read moreWarwick Neck. It is near the entrance of the port of Providence at the mouth of the Providence River. The original stone tower stood thirty feet tall with a small, 120-square-foot stone house attached and was described as an odd-looking structure, more like a windmill than a lighthouse. In 1833, a three-room wooden addition was added to the keeper's dwelling. Two years later, a lime and pebble covering was applied to the structure. The original beacon was a collection of eight lamps and nine-inch reflectors arranged around three-fourths of the circumference of a circular table. The cast iron structure was moved to its current location in 1939. It was placed on an eight-foot-tall concrete base so that ships could see its beacon over the top of the keeper's house. The tower is 51 feet tall and has a focal height of 66 feet. It is on Coast Guard property, behind a gate that was secured when I visited. I'm not sure if it is ever open for tours. There was a spot to stop my car and enjoy the view I posted. Three stars because it's pretty but secured from visitation. This is my 31st lighthouse in https://www.yelp.com/collection/GLWJhPZloUBCLUFSYgLw4g. [Review 15285 overall, 787 of 2021, number 47 in Rhode Island.]
