Watervale is a small farming community located about 20 km east of Charlottetown in lot #48 on Prince Edward Island, Canada.[1] It was called Forgan's Hill[2] but the members of the community voted to change the name sometime in the mid-19th century. While it presently has no retail outlets or public spaces, in the past it housed a community store, a family-run sawmill, a one-room school and a flag station on the Prince Edward Island Railway (PEIR). It has a population of approximately 50 permanent residents.[citation needed]
