This light is on private property and is not accessible. It can be seen from the Ferry Between Fort Fisher and Southport. Best view is just as the ferry enters or departs from the Southport dock.

Built: 1848 and 20 feet tall. The brick shell is the only one of eight lighthouses along the Cape Fear River Authorized by Congress in 1848 that is still standing. It is the smallest of the two lights that were built on Prices Creek. During the civil war confederates used the light as a signal station aiding blockade runners in navigating the river. The lights were destroyed by the confederates as they lost control of the Cape Fear River.
