Located on Front Road in Dildo, NL, this fish store was built by Samuel Pretty in the latter decades of the 1800s. It was sold to Albert Pretty in the late 1890s. It was then inherited by Albert’s son Allen. In the 1940s it was sold to Roy Pretty and in 1998 to Glen Reid. It was later purchased by Carol Ann Godo, who made repairs to the structure in 2014 with assistance from the Fisheries Heritage Preservation Program.
