Description: Fraser Companies Limited undertook the construction of the bark handling building for the woodroom. This is where they installed the equipment to prepare and send the bark to the no 4 bark boiler. We see the installation of two conveyors. The one on the right was used to stack bark outside and the other conveyor, on the left brought bark inside the bark handling building.
