Dipper Habour Outpost of the War of 1812
Street Address: Dipper Harbour, New Brunswick
In 1813, Colonel George Anderson established a British Garrison at Dipper Harbour. He built a large two-storey house with a lookout tower on the roof. It was 30 feet by 40 feet, built of hewn timbers, with four rooms on each floor and each room with a fireplace. In the basement was the kitchen, a large bake oven and the dinning room. The last visual trace of this building disappeared in 1975 with the construction of a modern restaurant.
