SPANIARD'S BAY (Harbor Grace) A large fishing settlement on the bay of the same name, north side of Conception Bay, in the district of Harbor Grace. Most of the population spend the summer on the Labrador, prosecuting the cod fishery. Spaniards' Bay is almost surrounded by high hills, and the views of Conception Bay from some of them is beautiful in the extreme. Point after point is seen stretching out into the waters of the Bay, on several of which pretty churches stand out prominently. Altogether some of the prettiest views of Conception Bay may be had from this neighborhood. It is distant from Harbor Grace by road 6 miles. Mail weekly. Population 1182. |
