Poole & Thompson Lumber and Hardware Store was located in Montague, Prince Edward Island. The Poole’s first store was built in 1888. It was a general store which sold just about everything that was necessary for people to live. Many ships would come into the wharf near the store to transport the store’s merchandise. The original building was torn down and a new structure was built in 1912. The Poole’s ceased operating as a general store in 1964. However; the newer building is still standing. It's now Beck's Home Furniture, Gifts and Interiors.
