Kent Cottage
Kent Cottage is a historic dwelling in Brigus, Newfoundland, now used for artist-in-residence and writer-in-residence programs. The surrounding property is known as Landfall. History Kent Cottage was originally a small Georgian-style structure built by the Pomeroy family around 1786. It was built near Brigus Bay, on the Battery (which is named for the gun emplacements that were there in the 1740s during King George's War). The area was also known as Freshwater, as there are several streams which were historically a source of water for sealing fleets. The Pomeroy family used the structure as a dwelling for many years but eventually turned it into a barn.Heritage Web Site
