Brick-making factory, Salt Springs, Antigonish County, 1895. Courtesy of Antigonish Heritage Museum. Restoration: Jeff Parker
The art of photographic restoration: it was only when Jeff Parker restored this photo, that we were able to detect the date of 1895, scratched on the negative.
The report in the Casket of the meeting of the Heritage Association in January, 1985 talks about this photo, and identifies its location on the Chisholm farm at Salt Springs (now Van Berkel). It notes that the bricks manufactured here were used in the construction of the StFX rink, The rink is gone and the Science Building occupies this space.
