Greenwood is located between the Fales and Annapolis Rivers was the commercial hub of the area. The area was settled by Loyalists in the 1770's in the aftermath of the American Revolution, when approximately 60,000 Loyalists migrated to Canada in support of the Crown. Present day Greenwood was originally two communities, Greenwood Square, so named because of the majestic pine trees, and the original Kingston Village (not to be confused with Kingston Station two kilometres further north). In 1940, Greenwood was selected as the site to built the Royal Air Force training base for its flat land and fog-free climate during World War II. The RAF Station became the RCAF Station in 1944 and in 1968 the station became Canadian Forces Base Greenwood.
