Kent Cottage

While living in Brigus, Kent made many paintings and prints inspired by the surrounding landscape, many which include depictions of the cottage.

[2] In 1930 the cottage was purchased by Albert Edward Harris, an English artist and engineer who had been employed by the Anglo-Newfoundland Development Company.

In 1953 Kent Cottage was occupied by Bradley Jacob Folensbee, Jr. ("Jake"), an American artist, teacher and war veteran.

He spent summers at the cottage, and until his death in 2004 he invested considerably in preserving and restoring it, including acquiring surrounding land to protect its character.

Folensbee bequeathed the property to the Landfall Trust, which now owns and maintains Kent Cottage and the surrounding 11 acres (4.5 ha) of land.
