Butler Flats Light is a sparkplug lighthouse located in the outer harbor of New Bedford, Massachusetts, at the mouth of the Acushnet River. It is currently operated by the City of New Bedford. The lighthouse is not open to the public, but is easily visible from the shore along East Rodney French Boulevard in New Bedford as well as other points along the city's waterfront. It is a caisson tank light with a total height of 53 feet (16 m), and is set on a concrete foundation set on the muddy bottom of the harbor. Built in 1898, it included living quarters for a staff of seven, who maintained the light and its associated fog signal. The station was automated in 1978.[5]

The light was added to the National Register of Historic Places as Butler Flats Light Station on June 15, 1987.[4]
