Annapolis Royal Wharf

The Windsor and Annapolis Railway built a large railway wharf at Annapolis Royal as their terminus. It provided a key connection to passenger and freight steamships. As built, the wharf was 450 feet long and 98 feet wide at the face and included a float and a double wharf spur which allowed W&A trains to meet steamships at the wharf and quickly transfer passengers and freight. ^[1] After the missing link between Digby and Annapolis Royal was completed, steamship traffic shifted to the Digby Wharf. The Annapolis Royal wharf continued to be used for freight until after World War Two. It became the Government Wharf serving fishing vessels, a small ship yard and yachts for Annapolis Royal and remains so today.
