Some photos from Margaretsville, Nova Scotia taken on my recent motorcycle trip.
Located on the Bay of Fundy, Margaretsville was named for Margaret Inglis by her husband the Honourable Brenton Halliburton, 8th Chief Justice of Nova Scotia. Margaret was the daughter of Bishop Inglis, the first Anglican Bishop of Nova Scotia. When they married her father gave them an estate on the shore which included all the area around where present day Margaretsville sets. This estate sat next to Sir Brenton’s father’s estate. The Halliburtons had built their summer home in the area in 1802.
As you might know, the Bay of Fundy has the highest tides in the world. Note how the boats are sitting on dry land. When the tide rolls in, they will be floating with their decks aligned to the peer.
