Brigus is a small, picturesque town in Conception Bay, nestled around a sheltered harbour and surrounded by hills. The oldest developed part of town, near the harbour, comprises a visually appealing pre-Confederation townscape. It consists mostly of residential development but also contains the town's public buildings and some commercial buildings. With wooden, two storey houses perched on rolling lanes and generous gardens fed by rivers and ponds, Brigus has been a favoured spot of artists for many decades. It is one of the few towns on the Avalon Peninsula that has preserved its historic character to such a large extent and in 1993 the Town of Brigus singled out the oldest part of the town and designated it the Brigus Historical Zone. The designation includes land, buildings, roadways, cemeteries and natural features as outlined in the Town's Municipal Plan." Canadian Historic Places
