Aircraft Warning Service Observation Tower
Aircraft Warning Service Observation Tower, Military observation tower in Agnew, United States.
The 35-foot wooden tower features three stories with exterior staircases, large windows on the top level, and a surrounding observation balcony.
The tower, constructed in 1941, served as a strategic spotting station where volunteers monitored potential Japanese aircraft intrusions during World War II.
A team of 300 local residents maintained constant surveillance at the tower, demonstrating the strong community involvement in national defense efforts.
Located at 216 Spring Road, the tower stands as the sole remaining Aircraft Warning Service facility in Clallam County, Washington.
The structure was relocated from its original Dungeness location in 1992 and restored to preserve its architectural and historical elements.
