Extremely Rare Film of Cobourg In The 1940’s

In Community, Editor Choice

On a cold, blowing winter’s day, Today’s Northumberland would like to share a number of rare films from Cobourg.

Parades through town, festivities in Victoria Park, aerial views, the old ferry coming into Cobourg and the launching of the HMCS Cobourg.

All extremely rare taken by Pete Fisher’s grandfather Winston.
