Parkbeg, Saskatchewan

"Parkbeg Manor"

           997 miles

Jan 2 – Like so many other small communities in Saskatchewan, Parkbeg has become a semi-ghost town with only a few citizens.  This abandoned farmhouse is a favorite subject of nostalgic photographers.  Brent Parkin's artistic version of "Parkbeg Manor" is very dramatic and shows homely details of the farmhouse’s former life.

Before 1957, Parkbeg was incorporated under village status, but with declining population was restructured to hamlet status under the jurisdiction of the rural municipality of Wheatlands at that time.
