Wickford and its deep maritime heritage anchor this coastal survey, where the protected waters of Wickford Harbor meet the West Passage. The shoreline is defined by a dense concentration of navigational landmarks and historical sites, from the iconic Wickford Lighthouse to the Plum Beach Lighthouse guarding the approach to the Jamestown Bridge. Inland, the landscape reflects centuries of settlement and industrial activity along the Annaquatucket River and Mattatuxet River, evidenced by numerous family cemeteries such as Quidnessett Cem and the Vaughan Arnold Cem.
