The Old Stone Bridge in Chester has been designated as a provincial heritage property site. The little bridge has a rich history and is located within the village. Councillor Brad Armstrong says the bridge holds a lot of memories for many people who grew up in the seaside village.
“We always hung out there in early June to watch the gaspereau go up the brook – which they still do. So we would meet there with the boys and watch the fish go up and we would catch ’em for lobster bait mainly. I remember selling them, I think I got a penny a piece for the gaspereau,”
The Old Stone Bridge was officially recognized as a heritage site earlier this month.
