Archerwill (2021 population: Шаблон:Nts) is a village in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan within the Rural Municipality of Barrier Valley No. 397 and Census Division No. 14. The village is approximately Шаблон:Convert north of Wadena, Шаблон:Convert south of Tisdale and Шаблон:Convert southeast of the City of Melfort. Since 1981[1] Archerwill has been the administrative centre of the RM of Barrier Valley.
History
The community is named, in a syllabic abbreviation, after the secretary-treasurer and two councilors of the executive governing council of the RM of Barrier Valley in 1924. They were: Archie Campbell and Ervie Hanson, councilors; and William Pierce, secretary-treasurer.[2][3] Archerwill incorporated as a village on January 1, 1947.[4]
Archerwill is located on the Wadena-to-Tisdale branch line of the Canadian Pacific Railway. However, the nearly 55-year-old railway station[5] was torn down in the early 1980s; and the nearly 60-year-old Saskatchewan Wheat Pool and UGG elevators[6] were torn down in the 1990s.
The Archerwill Café (probably built in the late 1920s),[7] most recently operating as Diner Thirty Five, burned down in a fire on June 23, 2016. The actions of the Archerwill Volunteer Fire Department, along with the Rose Valley Volunteer Fire Department – who arrived from Шаблон:Convert away – saved the adjacent Archerwill Hotel and the post office.[8]
