An early volunteer Mapannapolis team undertook to translate a 1980s & 1990s built heritage inventory, printed on paper and bound into a book, into digital maps. The records indicate both the period it was built, and the community where it was found. This house is among 58 built in the 1700s.

Sinclair Inn, Lower St. George Street, Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia

One of the oldest wooden structures in Canada, a National Historic site within a National Historic District.

Built circa 1708-1710, the Sinclair Inn is perhaps the only remaining pre-expulsion Acadian structure in Annapolis Royal. On Lower St. George Street in the Town, it is a striking example of a combined restoration project and educational resource, the building provides a fascinating glimpse into its construction system, materials, and evolution through the innovative use of glass panels.
