Springhill is an old town, founded in 1790. It was the center for several coal mines, one notably operated by Cumberland Railroad and Mining, all closed now.
It gets much of its heat geothermally.
Also known as the home town of Anne Murray. Near the ocean and an attractive area, it is a recreational center.

I remember the black tea served there- one can float a spoon in it.
