Pinhey was the Warden of the Dalhousie District and an appointed member of the Legislative Council of Canada. He sought to create an English style manor at what is now Pinhey's Point, and the juxtaposition of the English parish-style church and churchyard with Pinhey's great house, Horaceville, evoked the traditional interdependence of church and state in historic England.
