Sherwood

The Neighbourhood of Sherwood in Charlottetown, PEI

Sherwood is an area that is located in the Queens county, Prince Edward Island, in the center of East Royalty. Sherwood is located in the heart of Charlottetown on the Queen Royalty border and Lot 33 Township.

The district was originally known as Sherwood Station, as it stood on the Prince Edward Island Railway  from Charlottetown to Royalty Junction (where the line ran east to Mount Stewart and west to Emerald. The Sherwood station was replaced with only one in 1960). The town was established and renamed Sherwood in 1983. The city was merged with the city of Charlottetown on April 1, 1995.

Sherwood was an agricultural district, east of Common Royal pasture (Canada's new rural farm). Charlottetown and the West are surrounded by the royalty to the west, Parkdale to the south, and eastern royalty to the eastern side.

A major change in Sherwood took place in 1938 when a parcel of 300 hectares (1.2 km) on the northern edge of the general public was purchased by Charlottetown City to build an airport. Charlottetown Airport is a historic landmark in the northern part of the city and have had a significant impact on the post-war development of Sherwood. During the 1960s-1990s, most of the Sherwood farming area was built into residence area, bringing about the development of many isolated homes throughout the space, making Sherwood one of the leading groups of PEI communities related to individuals.

Sherwood Island is home to Sherwood Falcons of the Junior Hockey Association, and the Sherwood Metros of the Prince Edward Island Junior Sea Hockey Association. Currently the area, Sherwood, has a combination of residential, business, and modern stores.
