Portland Breakwater Light, affectionately known as "Bug Light" is constructed in a Greek Revival style. In doing a little research I discovered the present lighthouse was constructed in 1875, replacing the old one that was opened in 1855 as part of the extensive Portland Breakwater that guards the port from the Atlantic Ocean’s destructive storms.
