The story of the Quakers is very interesting the staff are very good at explaining how and why these folks came to Dartmouth.This house is like a maze inside there are many bedrooms and very small stairs.They also have a garden out back where they grow the herbs etc.This is a great place to visit if your interested in history.

And I'm a Quaker!! Great tour guides describe the Society of Friends, the house (and it's quirks), the history of the Quakers in Dartmouth and how they came to be there (and left), and the whaling industry in Nova Scotia. Admission charged (cheap, about $2)
