The Boarding House of Famed Canadian author Lucy Maud Montgomery, from August 1894 to May 1895, during her first teaching position in Bideford No. 6 School. This house was built in 1878 for Thomas H. Pope, Accountant and Telegraph Operator, and appears in the 1880 Meachams Prince Edward Island Atlas. The house has many unique and interesting architectural features. The Pope’s lived in the house for only 6 years before selling it to the Bideford Methodist Church in 1884 for their Parsonage. It was 10 years later that Maud Montgomery came to the board here. The house overlooks the Bideford River and Malpeque Bay.
