There was a family run sawmill & planer mill operated here during the late 1800's. Logs were brought by train from the Coldwater area near Merritt. The Canford Mills settlement included a box factory, company store, with post office, a school and a community hall. Wiring defects were deemed to be responsible for the fire that destroyed the sawmill in 1919. Merritt's old railway station also can be seen from here.
