About Westville
The town
Westville is a former coal town about 8 km south-west of New Glasgow, with about 3,540 people in 2021 on roughly 14 km². It was incorporated in 1894 and is one of Pictou County's five towns, governed apart from the rural municipality. Commercial coal mining began here in the 1860s; on 13 May 1873 an explosion at the Drummond Colliery killed between 60 and 70 men, and mining went on until 1985, employing more than a thousand men and boys at its 1910 peak. The town runs its own water utility, and it sets its own zoning inside its limits through its municipal planning strategy and land use bylaw. The nearest full hospital is Aberdeen Hospital in New Glasgow, with a 24-hour emergency department.
Around it
Acadia Park, on the reclaimed open pit of the Drummond mine, has about 1 km of gravel walking loop, a playground and a miners' memorial, and its trail is kept open year-round. The countryside beyond town limits belongs to the Municipality of Pictou County, whose development officer handles subdivision and land use and whose building officials issue permits for rural land. Westville Road meets Highway 104, the Trans-Canada, at exit 23. Halifax Stanfield International Airport is within about 90 minutes of New Glasgow by divided highway, and the Caribou ferry terminal for Prince Edward Island about 30 minutes.
