Location of Fortune Bridge in Prince Edward Island
Fortune Bridge is a small unincorporated area on Lot 43, East Parish, King County, Prince Edward Island, Canada. It is located west of the Town of Souris.[1][2][3]
Author Elmer Blaney Harris built a summer home and founded an artist colony in Fortune Bridge. Local residents, including Lydia Dingwell (1852-1931) of nearby Dingwells Mills, would be the inspiration for his play Johnny Belinda.[4][5][6][7] The home was later owned by actress Colleen Dewhurst and is now The Inn at Bay Fortune[8] and Fireworks restaurant, owned and operated by Chef Michael Smith and his partner Chastity Smith.
