Once considered one of the largest fish operations in the harbour, this is all that remains of Malcolm Pelley's fishing stage and sawmill. As went the cod, so too did many of the fishing operations around Newfoundland, as they ultimately became victims of the severe overfishing. The loss to the local economy was devastating, resulting in many a boat being pulled out of the water to rot on their slipways. Crow Head can be seen immediately behind what is left of the stage.
