Welsford is a small farming community in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia, located in Kings County.
It is one of two communities in Nova Scotia named after Augustus Frederick Welsford, a Nova Scotian war hero in the Crimean War, the other being Welsford, Pictou County (see the Welsford-Parker Monument). Nestled at the base of Nova Scotia's North Mountain, Welsford stretches along Route 221. Welsford is the birthplace of the entrepreneur Alfred Fuller, the "Fuller Brush Man".[1]
