Kingston Peninsula Heritage

Kingston Peninsula Heritage is a Canadian charitable organization dedicated to preserving, interpreting and sharing the heritage of New Brunswick’s Kingston Peninsula. It connects residents and visitors with the area’s history, people and landscape through operation of the John Fisher Memorial Museum and Archive and the 1810 Carter House Tea Room, stewardship of Moss Glen Trail and Tyng Hill, and care of Cedars Light and Bayswater Lighthouse.

The organization involves people representing a broad interest in the human and natural history of the Kingston Peninsula. The group’s ambitious agenda includes programs to enhance heritage sites, develop heritage awareness and education, maintain artifact and archive collections, create heritage displays and publish a newsletter and books. Recent initiatives include researching and presenting the history of Black Loyalist and Indigenous peoples of the Wolastoq. Exploration through artistic disciplines is developing through The Creek House at Tyng Hill. The invaluable contrinution  of volunteers, community support and donations make these successes possible.
