Mill site of the John S. Bagnall Saw Mill, Hazel Grove

     I stopped the other day to take this photo where the Bagnall's Saw Mill used to be - it was straight in from this photo.  This is looking east on Route 239 (Route 2 Highway is a half mile away to the south).  In the 1864 Hutchinson's Prince Edward Island Directory it lists John S. Bagnall of Hazel Grove owning the saw mill here.  This stream goes down to Bagnall's Pond in Hunter River where the Bagnall's once operated a saw mill, hardware store and woodworking shop in the old Patterson Grist Mill.

Below is the map from the Meachams 1880 Atlas showing the saw mill.

This is across the road looking north - see the old barn in the photo below.

Prince Edward Island houses in The Old House Book

     I was going through The Old House Book by Robin Langley Sommer 1999 and came across these two Island properties on page 35. 

From the book - 

Maritime Charm

...an abandoned farmhouse with shed-roofed dormer on Prince Edward Island (Hazel Grove next to Hunter River) succumbs to the elements, its timber framework buckling under the assaults of wind and weather.  Below is a well-kept working farm on the Island (Springbrook on New London Bay), with a steeply gabled houseroof to shed snow and a gambrel-roofed barn.
