Municipality of the County of Colchester

District 7

District 7 is one of the largest in the area and its exposure to the Northumberland Strait makes it a popular spot to build a summer cottage or permanent home. This district features a portion of the Trans Canada Trail and the North Shore Recreation Centre, offering the residents plenty of recreational opportunities.  If history is your forte, then this region is a place to see. The Balmoral Grist Mill and the Sutherland Steam Mill are both located in District 7.  It is this district that provides our only link to the Strait and to some of the warmest waters north of the Carolinas. The arts and cultural communities are an integral part of this district.

This district is home to Tatamagouche which has appeared on television's OLN's Road Hockey Rumble and most recently, CBC's The Week the Women Went.
