Everything about Hope Island Rhode Island totally explained

18th century farm site on the west side of Hope Island. To date, no archaeological work or documentary research has been carried out relating to this site. During
World War II, the island was used by the
U.S. Navy as an ammunition storage site. There are still ammunition bunkers and concrete roads remaining from this period.
Hope Island was acquired by the state in the early 1970s.
