NELL Grant to Scituate Light

A grant presented to Scituate Lighthouse last year assisted in the renovation that was completed late last Spring. The grant helped to repair the stairs leading up to the lantern room. In recognition to the grant, a plaque has been placed outside the walkway between the house and the tower. NELL is proud to continue to assist New England Lighthouses with their renovations so that many generations may be able learn about and appreciate lighthouse history.
