| Established in 1783 by Loyalists
from Castine, Maine, St. Andrews-by-the-Sea is one of New Brunswick's oldest and most
distinctive settlements. Except for Water Street, which runs along
the shore, all the street names have royal or colonial associations.
Thirteen are named after the children of George III and his wife,
Charlotte, and two after faithful servants of the crown; the remainder are
King, Queen and Prince of Wales. |
 |
| St.
Andrews has a number of beautiful, historic churches such as the Greenock
Presbyterian Church. The Presbyterians here organized for worship in
1822 as a congregation of the Church of Scotland. The church building,
finished in June 1824, was the gift of Capt. Christopher Scott, a
patriotic native of the town of Greenock, Scotland. Finished with the
finest materials, mahogany, maple (including bird's eye maple), the
building is an architectural showpiece and National Historic Site. |
 |
| Consecrated
in 1867, the All Saints Anglican Church was constructed of native pine and
spruce. Considered modern at the time, the church was fitted with
beautiful stained-glass windows, a majestic pipe organ and a number of
custom fixtures which remain today. |
 |
| Consecrated
in 1886, the Catholic Church of St. Andrew is a wooden structure built in
the modern Gothic style of architecture. |

Andrews' Kiwanis Oceanfront Campground offered beautiful views of
