How to Use This Stonehurst West, Nova Scotia Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Stonehurst West, Nova Scotia. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

Drag the map to pan to any area of Nova Scotia or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Stonehurst West and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Stonehurst West.

Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

About Stonehurst West, Nova Scotia

Stonehurst West is a community in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Stonehurst West is located at 44.3646°N, 64.2333°W.

Stonehurst West rests upon the rugged Atlantic coast, cradled by the granite spine of the Brown Hill. It lies 6.2 km east-south-east of Lunenburg, NS (from Lunenburg, NS: bearing 104°T), and is situated 15.7 km south-south-east of Martins River. The salt-heavy wind carries the scent of cold brine across the jagged shoreline, where the light at dusk turns the water into hammered pewter. While the LaHave River flows some 12 km to the west and the quiet basin of Steverman Lake hides 9 km inland, the true character of Stonehurst West is defined by the immediate, relentless push of the ocean against the rock. Beyond the reach of the tide, the path leads toward Second Peninsula Provincial Park, situated 7 km away, offering a vantage point over the shifting blues of the Atlantic. The land here holds a stark, unadorned beauty, where the grey stone and the dark spruce meet in a quiet collision of elements. The history of Stonehurst West remains anchored in the stubborn persistence of those who turned to the sea for their livelihood, building a life from the volatile bounty of the Atlantic. Small-scale maritime activity and the seasonal harvest of the coastal waters shaped the local economy, keeping the pace of life attuned to the movement of the tides and the severity of the seasons. Even as the modern world intrudes, Stonehurst West retains a singular focus on the horizon, where the sky meets the water in a long, unbroken line. The houses huddle close to the earth, protecting their warmth against the spray, while the people move through their days with a quiet, deliberate intent that matches the permanence of the surrounding hills.

Detailed location data for Stonehurst West includes the postal code (B4V), telephone area code (782, 902). These are among the most commonly searched location details for any Canadian city or town.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data for Stonehurst West is sourced from the Canadian Geographical Names Database (CGN), Natural Resources Canada, and verified by coordinates rather than name matching alone. GPS coordinates, province, administrative location and place type are shown in the information panel above.
