This is Hampshire United Church, demolished in 2007 - sorry to see the little rural community loose one of it's heritage buildings when so few of its public buildings remain - they so often defined the community. When I took these photos the thing that struck me most was all the hands it took to build it and here it was demolished and discarded!
Funny how history is thrown away like trash, and years later folks realize what they have lost. Suppose PEi hasn't reached the second stage, lord knows many others have, hence our tourism numbers.
ReplyDeleteIf it keeps happening, PEI will be just like other places - the charm will be gone when the buildings go. PEI is more than the land and the sea. Fran
