Weathervane Wednesday ~ Another two masted ship!

Every Wednesday for almost a year and half I've been posting photographs of weathervanes located in or near the Nutfield area (the former name for the land where Londonderry, Derry and Windham, New Hampshire are now located). Most are historically interesting or just whimsical and fun weathervanes. Today's weathervane can be seen in Massachusetts. Have fun guessing where you may have seen this weather vane.

Do you know the location of weather vane #92? Scroll down to see the answer....


Can you see the weathervane?
Look above the peaked gable end of the house
just above the telephone wires.

Today's weather vane is found in historic Plymouth, Massachusetts.  It is atop a private residence on North Street, not far from Plymouth Harbor where the Mayflower II is berthed.  It is also located a few doors away from the home of the Mayflower Society's Winslow House.  I'm pretty sure that this pretty little, three dimensional weather vane represents the Mayflower that brought the Pilgrims to America in 1620!  The rigging on this weather vane is amazing, and the pretty painted hull makes it stand out very well, even though it is a very small figure.
