View Across The Harbor

View Looking East Across the Harbour

An early view of Port Stanley. The grain elevator on the west side of the harbour has not yet been built. The building in the foreground is the Franklin House Hotel. There is a note attached to the postcard which we have in our Heritage Port Stanley files which can probably be attributed to Frank Brumpton, an earlt Port Stanley resident. The note says “On the wharf – liquor warehouse used for exporting booze during “dry days”. Port Stanley Supply Co. which produced fertilizer made of junk fish. On the east side of the harbour Brown’s fish house and broom factory”.
