History

The Township of Stanbridge was first surveyed by Jesse Pennoyer in the year 1792. It was subsequently opened for settlement, reversing the old policy of "no settlements along the frontier." In 1997, the township changed its form of government and became Stanbridge East. The village became the film location for the fictional setting of Three Pines, Quebec, in the 2013 made-for-television movie Still Life, based on Louise Penny's novel of the same title about Chief Inspector Armand Gamache.
