Davidson Kennedy Property Wallace, NS
Owner:
Nova Scotia Museum
Project Date:
1991
This property is composed of an early 19th century house (c. 1840) and five outbuildings. The Nova Scotia Museum requested a report to serve as a guide to planning future restoration and renovation projects of their community museums. Based on a proposal call by the Nova Scotia Department of Government Services, G.F. Duffus & Co. Ltd (now part of DSRA) was awarded the contract to document the existing condition of the buildings and to make recommendations regarding their conservation. Secondary objectives were to outline the most likely chronological development of the site and its structure, and consider procedures that may be appropriate for the recording of future acquisitions.
