It is a cast-iron, skeleton tower on six concrete piers. The hexagonal base is {{convert|30|ft|m|abbr=on}} in diameter. There is a central, cylindrical stair tower with a spiral staircase. The hexagonal watch room and lantern has a wooden structure. The focal plane of the lantern is {{convert|87|ft|abbr=on}} above its base and {{convert|92|ft|abbr=on}} above mean sea level. The tower was covered with wooden sheathing, which was later covered with sheet metal. This sheathing has been removed. The tower originally had Hains oil lamps, which were replaced in 1893 with Funck-Heap lamps. The station was deactivated in 1932. The front range light was moveable to compensate for the shifting channel. It is no longer in existence. The brick oil house standard near the tower.[2] The South Carolina Department of Archives and History has information and pictures of the tower.[1] The keeper's house was cut in two and moved to Harbour Town in Hilton Head. The tower is located on hole 15 of the Arthur Hills Golf Course.[4] References1. ^1 2 {{NRISref|2010a}} {{Lighthouses of South Carolina}}{{National Register of Historic Places in South Carolina}}2. ^1 {{Cite web | last = Wells | first = John E. |author2=Preston Burch | title = Rear Lighthouse of Hilton Head Range Light Station | work = National Register of Historic Places - Nomination and Inventory | date = July 1985 | url = http://www.nationalregister.sc.gov/beaufort/S10817707031/S10817707031.pdf | format = pdf | accessdate = 9 June 2012}} 3. ^{{Cite web | title = Rear Lighthouse of Hilton Head Range Light Station, Beaufort County (Palmetto Dunes Resort off U.S. Hwy. 278, Hilton Head Island) | work = National Register Properties in South Carolina | publisher = South Carolina Department of Archives and History | url = http://www.nationalregister.sc.gov/beaufort/S10817707031/index.htm| accessdate = 9 June 2012}} 4. ^Lighthousefriends.com 6 : Lighthouses completed in 1880|Towers completed in 1880|Lighthouses on the National Register of Historic Places in South Carolina|Buildings and structures in Beaufort County, South Carolina|National Register of Historic Places in Beaufort County, South Carolina|1880 establishments in South Carolina |
