The Rose Island Lighthouse was built atop a circular bastion on the remains of Fort Hamilton. Located at the southern tip of the island, the fortification dates back to the British occupation of Newport during the Revolutionary War. After the Revolution a brilliant French engineer and war hero, Louis Tousard, fortified the stonework

Officials failed to heed Rose Islands second keeper, Gustavus Clarkes warnings to place sea walls around the island. A devastating gale in 1898 reduced the island from 23 acres to its current 17 acres.
