Tivertonhouse, what was "the Scene"in the sixties? Sounds interesting.

I believe it is 2 seperate places , one is the upscale boutique hotel outside Kingston , the other , the place the song was written about . Faith , P.S. right about now in Montreal when it is -30 , BOTH sound PERFECT !!!!

Strawberry Fields, on North Coast, in the 60s was a classic hippie encampment.
Strawberry Hill, in Irish Town above Kingston, is today a luxury Chris Blackwell boutique resort.
