Cradle Installation Begins

October 8, 2015

The foundation for the cradle is being constructed. The cradle itself has been built and will be placed on the site next week. The cradle was used to haul barges up the inclined plane from Dartmouth Cove to Sullivans Pond. This occurred during the second phase of the Shubenacadie Canal operated by the Inland Navigation Company.
