Description
The hazardous shoals at Maryland's Piney Point, located about 14 miles from Point Lookout, had been marked with a lightship since 1821. The Piney Point Lighthouse, built in 1836, was the first of 11 lighthouses to be built along the Potomac River. Along with the Jones Point and Fort Washington lighthouses, Piney Point is one of only three of the original 11 to remain standing today.
