Inland Nova Scotia community where a property owner in the 1970s claimed to have uncovered the stone foundations of a pre-Columbian castle, sparking theories that Henry Sinclair constructed a Templar fortress here following his alleged 1398 voyage to the New World. In Season 4, Rick Lagina, Charles Barkhouse and Doug Crowell investigated the site, where professional diver Tony Sampson explored a mysterious stone-lined water well and discovered a stone bearing what he suggested might be the Eye of Providence. Zena Halpern's controversial 1179 map labels a point near this location as "RhoDon." The site remains central to theories connecting the Knights Templar, the Sinclair family, and the Baronets of Nova Scotia to Oak Island.
