Bayards Cove

Bayards Cove
By David Stranack

Bayards Cove is one of Dartmouth’s oldest and most scenic locations, and this book contains a wealth of information about the fort, the quay, and the buildings that stand upon it. The fort was built in the early 16th century; has never fired a shot in anger; and has been put to many different uses since its early days. Although much is known about several of the properties on the quay – particularly the Custom House and Morocco House, which once housed Dartmouth’s first hospital – the author admits many aspects of Bayards’ history have yet to be uncovered.
