The tower was built during WW2 to help defend the New Hampshire coastline and the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard.

The tower was opened once last year but had been cleaned and restored to open today for Memorial Day. The tower may be opened again this year for July 4th.

The tower was 7 stories and provided some good views of the NH coastline looking south.
