Elgin

The landscape around Elgin is rolling, forested upland in northern Nova Scotia, which has shaped both its dispersed settlement pattern and a rural economy rooted in woodland and farmland. This small inland community lies south of the Northumberland Strait, the waterway separating mainland Nova Scotia from Prince Edward Island. Local roads link farms, woodlots and scattered homes rather than a dense town centre. The wider area carries a strong legacy of Scottish settlement, commemorated in Pictou by the 1773 arrival of the ship Hector.
