The Real Story Behind Hant's Harbour's Great Wall | Calgary News
from Calgary News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
In Hant’s Harbour, locals call a mysterious stone maze “The Great Wall”—a 20-meter-long, metre-high structure built by 19th-century European settlers, not pirates or Indigenous caribou fences. Used for farming terraces and roadwork on Newfoundland’s rocky terrain, these walls were constructed using nogging techniques to withstand harsh weather. Archaeological finds like pottery and glass fragments confirm the era, and now a new audio walking tour lets visitors explore this hidden chapter of settler ingenuity and resilience.
