The AGO Albums

" J.C.M. Hayward, Operations of the Anglo-Newfoundland Development Company, 1912
This album is one of four in the AGO's collection that photographer J.C.M. Hayward produced for the Anglo-Newfoundland Development Company in 1912. The pulp and paper company, based in Grand Falls, transformed Newfoundland's economy. In the 48 views found in this album, Hayward photographed all aspects of the production of paper, from sorting cut logs to pressing pulp to packing and transporting the finished paper rolls. His evocative gelatin silver prints, luxuriously presented between leather-bound, gilt-stamped covers, beautifully celebrate the company's success."

These heritage treasures can be viewed at the Art Gallery of Ontario and one can be viewed on-line at http://www.ago.net/hayward-album

Grand Falls House and Property

This Edwardian country home still stands on the banks of the Exploits River, surrounded by a stand of mainly birch trees and several acres of landscaped grounds. Some of the interior features which still remain in the structure are the large fireplaces constructed of local rock, leaded windows and splendid staircases.

Rock walls

One of the features which the Harmsworth Brothers had utilized in developing the town-site was the construction of the red stone walls which flanked many of the early streets. Some of these walls are still in existence, most notably bordering the Grand Falls House property, on Church, Hill, Carmelite, Cabot and Mill Roads as well as in front of the mill premises.

Lion's Head fountain

These fountains were in place in a number of locations around the community and were responsible for carrying fresh water for public consumption to areas of the town not yet serviced by a water supply. Unfortunately, only two of these are known to be in existence today - one at the Heritage Property in Botwood and the other in Church Road Park in Grand Falls-Windsor.

The "Dummy" and High Street

The roundabout, known locally as "the Dummy", can still be found today at the western end of High Street. Like its British cousins, the main business street in the community was called "High Street" and the roundabout, another common feature in Britain, serviced traffic for a number of converging streets at the western end of the main business district.
