This is the Beaver Point wharf, built by Henry Ruckle in 1887 and Patterson store in what is now Ruckle Park. Virtually all apples leaving Salt Spring left by boat from these type of wharves. The arrival of a boat was a very important and busy time at these wharfs. This wharf was demolished in the 1950’s due to inactivity and the wharf in Ganges took over as the commercial centre of commerce.
