Description: Two kids sitting on a guard rail near the Fraser sawmill located along the Tobique River in Plaster Rock. This sawmill was built in 1906 and produced wooden boards. We see the chimney indicating where bark was burned to produce steam energy. We also see the water tank that was used in case of fire.
