Did you ever try Beef Iron Wine?
Cod Fish and Child Mural
I liked this mural with the large cod fish and a young boy next to them.

It's amazing that these fish are now so rare and not rearly this size when caught.
Artifact Display and Mural
I beleive this was in the Herring Store, building 18.
Inside the Battle Harbour Church

Battle Harbour Church

Noted ecclesiastical architect William Grey, under the direction of Bishop Edward Feild, designed the Church of St. James the Apostle for Battle Harbour in the late 1840s. Built in 1852 and restored in 1991, St. James is the sole surviving example of Grey's work. It is also the oldest surviving Anglican church in Labrador.
Here I am in the pulpit!
Church Bell Tower

Bell Tower

It took a bit of creativity but here I got a picture of the bell in the bell tower of the church. Yank the cord in the porch of the church and enjoy the sound of this bell today.
Ranger Attire

Ranger Display

In the Ranger Station building F, there is interpretation including this display of the typical attire.
Cookhouse / Bunkhouse Interior

Inside the Bunk House

This is a picture of the bunks in the cookhouse / bunkhouse or building number I.

It is typical hostel style and look very comfortable.

 Great page about BH (Battle Harbour - not Beverly Hills)! Love that sunset pic.
