Map location of Ferryland

"Ferryland Historic Townscape Area is located in the Town of Ferryland, NL. This evolving district encompasses an area along the waterfront at the foot of The Gaze." Once "the religious centre of the community, being the location of a Presentation convent, a school and a Roman Catholic church," it served as the administrative centre of the Southern Shore region — its district contains the former courthouse, a mid-18th-century cemetery, and "Holy Trinity Roman Catholic Church [which] was consecrated in 1865 and is the last of 5 similar stone churches commissioned by Bishop Mullock." source
