| Description |
The Summer House – built in 1761, now the Harpswell Inn, was originally the old cookhouse of famed Lookout Point Shipyard, which made sturdy vessels that sailed the seven seas. Harpswell has been called a nursery for those who sailed the seas, but there were stalwart men who stayed home and fashioned with prideful skill the many stately schooners that carried Harpswell men to fame in those faraway places. One such shipyard thrived at the sandy point at the Lookout. The yard flourished before, during and after the Civil War, and for about twenty years schooners and brigs ranging from 20 to 200 tons were built and launched there. Sometimes there were as many as four on the ways at once. There is one remaining symbol of the flourishing shipyard which, during the summer months at least, works as of old. That is the old bell a-top Harpswell Inn. In the 1860s the bell summoned the hungry shipwrights to their meals. [Website] |
