Warwick Rhode Island Shipwrecks and Moses Green House
- 3 years ago
guess where i'm standing i'm standing in front of moses greenhouse built in 1750. this house has been used for early smugglers in rhode island to avoid taxes and they would smuggle all kinds of goods into this milk cove that i'll show you a little bit in a little bit in few minutes they smuggled not just goods but also
and this house is known to have secret uh hiding room in the basement that was covered by a big door on the on a railroad tracks okay so you had to move it uh on the on those rail trucks in order to open that secret room so let's take a look it's an incredible incredible site it was built in 1750 just like a peter greenhouse a little bit further down i'll show you in a second
so this is the milk cove in huawei rhode island you know 1750 we're talking about almost 300 years and that's where our early rhode islanders were smuggling their goods to avoid the british taxes that's where moses green house is and as we walk away from that cove you will see that this is uh just a regular neighborhood residential neighborhood right now and somebody actually lives in that
house moses greenhouse which you can see behind me we'll get closer again so again this is the moses greenhouse from the other side and we just came from right here from milk cove that's what all the action was with the smuggling
pretty cool so i'm standing in front of peter greenhouse which is built the same year 1715 as moses uh green so let's take a look here we are so peter green uh was actually a captain and i will tell you a little bit more about him he was a very interesting character as well but as you can see this is a very old ground a lot of action happened around here a lot of action it would be worth visiting 1750.
we are on our way
to a cove right near gaspi almost pretty much walking distance where i will show you the location of two shipwrecks one of them is especially interesting because it was a yacht
so we are here at occupation where we call in warwick
so we approach
the harbour the little cove at low tide
and
i will show you a couple of shipwrecks here
it looks very interesting um what is retrieved this is right down from gaspi point which is right there
so this is an interesting
cove little cove in warwick and you can see further down green island which the access to it
is available right now at low tide you can walk to it through the water it will be maybe to your waist during high tide
you can't really walk through you might have to swim to it but right there close to green island that is one of the shipwrecks
that shipwreck over there is just a traditional um
ship that was carrying wood nothing excited about it but to your right i will show you a shipwreck of a schooner that is very interesting so let's get closer to that shipwreck and see what this is all about now i know a little bit about it and it was a schooner
they do actual they do research on it i believe
because they don't know much about it either there's not much info
