Fisheries Heritage Preservation Program

Gordon Fry Fish Store, Summerville

Store undergoing restoration, summer 2008

The preservation of fisheries-related structures throughout the province is an essential component in the preservation efforts of the Heritage Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador.

HFNL started the Fisheries Heritage Preservation Program with five pilot projects in 2002, and has since approved over $300,000 in grants to restore stages, stores, flakes, lofts and other buildings associated with the Newfoundland and Labrador fisheries.

Kean family for almost a century. It was the 2004
