Clementsport is a community in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia, located in Annapolis County. The village was established originally by Empire Loyalists from Long Island, NY, who came to the region around the time of the American Revolution, c. 1785. Several homes and churches in the village date to the late 1700s and early 1800s. Formerly an industrial Town, Clementsport has been the site of extensive wooden shipbuilding in the past, and had an iron smelting factory along the river, as well as extensive dockworks, stores and residences that were built along the river on wooden pilings and stilts, similar to the yet existing structures in the nearby village of Bear River. The decline of wooden shipbuilding led to the decline of the former Town, and none of the structures that were built along the river yet remain.
