Tue Marshes Light, Maritime lighthouse in York County, Virginia
The Tue Marshes Light stands at the entrance of York River, featuring a square structure design with a lantern housing the navigation lens.
Congress allocated 15,000 dollars for the construction of Tue Marshes Light, which began in May 1875 and concluded with its first illumination in August 1875.
The lighthouse represents maritime navigation heritage, serving maritime traffic and supporting local fishing communities through decades of continuous operation.
Located at coordinates 37.2356° N and 76.3859° W, the lighthouse guided vessels with a light pattern of one second flash followed by four seconds eclipse.
The Coast Guard removed the screwpile foundation in 2015, marking the end of this navigation aid that assisted numerous vessels for 140 years.
