About Lawrencetown
The town
Lawrencetown is a rural, mostly residential community on the Atlantic coast east of Cole Harbour, inside the Halifax Regional Municipality. Acadians farmed here before 1754, when a grant approved under Lieutenant Governor Charles Lawrence gave the place its name; later it grew vegetables and hay for Halifax, and gold was mined around Mineville from 1861. HRM issues building permits and sets zoning under the Lawrencetown municipal planning strategy and land use by-law. That plan rules out municipal water and sewer, so homes rely on private wells and septic systems, and it maps the coastal wetlands and sets watercourse setbacks. The nearest full hospital is Dartmouth General, with a 24-hour emergency department.
Around it
Beaches, marshes and trails here belong to the 747-hectare Cole Harbour-Lawrencetown Coastal Heritage Park System, spread between Cow Bay and Three Fathom Harbour. Lawrencetown Beach, about 22 km from downtown Dartmouth, is a cobble beach of roughly 2 km below the drumlin at Lawrencetown Head, surfed all year, with lifeguards in July and August and strong rip currents. Across Route 207 lies the salt marsh of Lawrencetown Lake. The park system allows no camping. The Salt Marsh Trail (6.7 km, with a long causeway) and the 10 km Atlantic View Trail follow the old rail bed for walking, cycling and cross-country skiing; the Atlantic View Trail is managed as a non-motorized trail. Route 207 runs along the coast, Mineville and Crowell's roads link it to Highway 107, and Halifax Stanfield is the nearest airport with scheduled flights.
