Lyons Brook
The community of Lyons Brook is located on the west side of the mouth of the West River of Pictou. It was named after Reverend James Lyon, a Philadelphia emigrant who arrived in 1767. In 1903, by act of the Provincial Legislature, this name was officially given to an area previously known as “Logans Tannery”, “Scotch Hill West River Road” and “Lyons Brook.”
