Attractions

* Guysborough County Courthouse

* The former residence of Supreme Court of Nova Scotia Justice W.F. DesBarres. The justice was the grandson of Joseph Frederick Wallet DesBarres who was an army officer, military engineer, surveyor, colonizer and colonial administrator who created an important 4-volume atlas of nautical charts for the coastline of eastern North America called the "Atlantic Neptune". The residence was renovated into the DesBarres Manor Inn in 2003. Several maps from the "Atlantic Neptune" hang in the inn. [http://www.desbarresmanor.com]
