Administrative history
The Hastings Saw Mill was opened in 1867 by the B.C. and Vancouver Island Spar Lumber and Saw Mill Company (commonly known as Stamps Mill) on Burrard Inlet. Captain Edward Stamp operated the mill until 1869 when it was sold. The new owners, Heatley & Company of London, secured the services of Captain R.A. Raymur to manage the operation. The Mill was guided in turn by Richard H. Alexander, John Hendry and Eric Humber until 1928 when the property was sold to the National Harbours Board.
