Notes

This building was used by the family of Billy McGrath up until the late 1970s or early 1980s. It was used as a place to store fishing gear and other related equipment. In the spring it was used for mending fishing gear and preparing for the fishing season. In the summer and the fall it was used for storing cured salt fish until it was sold to merchants.
