}} The Seacow Head Light is a lighthouse on the south-central coast of Prince Edward Island, Canada, west of Central Bedeque. It was built in 1864. The lighthouse was relocated in 1979 to avoid erosion. The lighthouse appeared in several episodes of the television series ''Road to Avonlea'' and was home to one of the series' main characters, Gus Pike.〔(Road to Avonlea Filming Sites )〕 The name "Seacow Head" was given in reference to the walrus, formerly abundant in nearby waters, and is not connected with Steller's Sea Cow or other Sirenia. ==Keepers== * Malcolm MacFarlane 1865 – 1867 * Thomas P.
