Vicinity – Around Sackville
In an area long inhabited by Mi’kmaq First Nation groups, then by Acadian French settlers, Sackville, New Brunswick was established as a British settlement in the latter 18th century; its current population is about 5,500. Formerly a centre of shipbuilding and small-scale manufacture, it’s now known principally as the home of Mount Allison University, founded in 1839.
Since I’m mostly given to shooting natural landscapes rather than architecture, many of the photos below actually show rural areas around the town proper: Middle and Upper Sackville, Silver Lake, Beech Hill, Frosty Hollow, Westcock, and nearby woodlands.
