Enjoy the sights and sounds of a horse-drawn wagon creaking down a gravel road, the smell of newly shaved wood in the wood turner’s shop and the thump of the printer’s manual press or the weaver’s loom. This picturesque former lumbering and shipbuilding community looks as it did 100 years ago, before gold mining transformed it into a boom town. 25 buildings on their original sites: Cumminger Brothers’ Store; Ambrotype Studio; Sherbrooke Hotel; a typical rural doctor’s office (c 1910) in the original home; the grand residence of John Cumminger; the Company Store, with traditional Nova Scotian crafts; and the rare working up-and-down sawmill, just down the road.
