Keeper's Quarters
The "Keeper's Quarters" refers to the living space designated for the lighthouse keeper, the individual responsible for maintaining the lighthouse and ensuring its light operates effectively. These quarters typically include basic amenities such as a kitchen, bedroom, and living area, providing a comfortable environment for the keeper and their family.
In many lighthouses, the Keeper's Quarters are located adjacent to the lighthouse tower, allowing for easy access to the light and equipment. This arrangement was essential for the safety of ships navigating nearby waters, as the keeper would monitor the light and weather conditions, contributing to maritime safety.
