Woody Point Light

About

Woody Point Light is a light house located at Curzon Head in Woody Point, Newfoundland and Labrador. Built in 1919, the tower was damaged in 1923 when a fire swept through the community. Originally, acetylene gas was used for the light, but after the fire, kerosene was used. In 1959, a new tower was built and it was switched to battery power.
