Description
Emma and Murdock McCuish purchased the McCulloch House in 1934. The grounds at this time consisted of seven acres, an apple orchard and grapevines. The McCuish family immediately began restoration of their new property, doing the majority of the work themselves. It was during these renovations, the historical importance of their house became very clear. Emma and Murdock made it their mission to preserve and promote the home and history of Rev. Thomas McCulloch. This led to their decision of eventually selling the house and property to the province of Nova Scotia in 1972.
It is primarily due to the work of Emma and Murdock McCuish that Sherbrooke Cottage stands today for us all to enjoy.
