English Harbour is a community in Trinity Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador. The Way Office was established in 1883 and the first Waymaster was Henry G. Batson. It had a population of 190 in 1956. It is the home of All Saints Anglican Church, a provincial heritage site. The church contains the English Harbour Arts Centre,.
