Newfondland Folk Song "Tickle Cove Pond" refers to this pond in Tickle Cove and the song story (which is true) is about hauling fire wood in late spring over Tickle Cove Pond. As the song says "the hard and the easy we take as it comes, but when ponds freeze over we shorten's our runs" this hauling fire wood was a common practice in the early years of Newfoundland settlement. As the story goes "Kit", a Newfoundland Pony was hauling wood over Tickle Cove Pond's soft ice in late spring. The ice gives way and the owner and song writer thinks that his mare is lost. He cries out for help to his neighbours, William White and Willaim Oldford, who come quickly to his aid, and as he (the writer) say's "You can always depend on the Oldford's and White's to lend a hand in all of your plight's".
