Campbellton and Miramichi are two small cities located in Northern New Brunswick. I visited both cities in August 2014.
Christ Church Anglican
| |
First Baptist ChurchThis church was built in 1912. | |
First United ChurchThis church was built in 1950. | |
Knox Presbyterian ChurchThis church was built in 1926. | |
Notre Dame des Neiges (Roman Catholic) ChurchThis church was built in 1950. |
Former Bank BuildingThe coat of arms is that of the Government of New Brunswick. | |
New Brunswick Telephone CompanyThis building dates from 1925. Note the details over the windows and main entrance. | |
Store #1I really like the arched windows and brick details on the second story. The lower facade still retains a few original features, like the decorated columns. | |
Store #2This building has definitely seen better days, but there are still a few interesting details remaining, such as the bay windows and the decoration along the roof line. |
House #1I just love this place! | |
House #2This style of bungalow is not commonly seen implemented in brick. | |
House #3This house dates from 1927. I suspect that it was originally built as a commercial building. | |
House #4This is another interesting example of a brick structure. I especially love the tower on the front. |
Bridge across the Restigouche RiverIt connects to Pointe-à-la-Croix, Quebec. | |
City HallCampbellton was incorporated as a City in 1889; this building dates from 1910. | |
Municipal BuildingThis building dates from 1922. The tower on the left-hand side is visible across much of the city. |
Miramichi was formed in 1994 by the amalgamation of several smaller communities, including the towns of Chatham and Newcastle, and the village of Douglastown. Note that most of these photographs were taken in the former town of Newcastle. I hope to cover more of the city in a future visit.
Calvary Baptist Church

Our Lady of Lourdes (Roman Catholic) ChurchThis Church was built in 1906, and it was replaced with new, larger building in 1990. It is located in the former village of Doaktown. |
|
St. Andrews' (Anglican) ChurchThis Church was built in 1850. | |
St. James and St. John United ChurchFormerly St. James Presbyterian, construction of this structure commenced in 1829 under Master Builder William Murray. It exemplifies neo-classical design. |

Newcastle Town Hall and TheatreConstruction of this building was paid for by Max Aitken (Lord Beaverbrook) in 1953. |
