Station Agents House - 1904

     Here's an article about the Lower Freetown Station Agents house, moved to Augustine Cove in the early 1990's.  Today it is a summer rental property - http://www.homeaway.ca/cottage-rental/p388753vb
     Many communities on the Island with train stations had Station Agents homes built from this same plan.
