The staff at the Region of Peel Archives has assisted in compiling the research for this document. I 2-6 vi Executive Summary Scarlett Janusas Archaeological & Heritage Consulting & Education (SJACHE) was retained by Metrus Developments to conduct a cultural heritage impact assessment on two properties in the proposed Employment Block (subdivision) located at 11098 Dixie Road in the City of Brampton. This property had been identified as exhibiting potential according to the City of Brampton Heritage Guidelines by Archaeological Services Inc. in 2008, as part of a larger cultural heritage assessment. This property lies within the proposed “Employment Block” subdivision, bordered by Highway 410, Mayfield Road, Dixie Road, and Countryside Road, in the City of Brampton. The cultural heritage impact assessment of these properties included a field visit, archival research, and architectural evaluation. The original historic landscape of the area is rural agricultural. The property located at 11098 Dixie Road has been subject to recent modifications to the landscape (dewatering along Dixie Road, in ground pool, large construction berm to immediate west of property) to diminish the historic landscape. The structures located on 11098 Dixie Road consist of a 1 and 1/2 storey wood frame house with additions and five outbuildings (2 barns, a shed, and another outbuilding). The residence at 11098 Dixie Road is not original to the property, and was moved to this location circa 1900 (personal communication, Mr. Gray, Sr.). The property does not meet any of the criteria of OHA O. Reg. 9/06. The outbuildings lack any heritage value. The following recommended options for the property have been identified: 1. Commemorate the location of 11098 Dixie Road with a plaque and a description of its importance in early adaptive reuse (house located to this location and used as a store/residence, and then residence). 2. Commemorate the early settlers of this property through use of the family name for street names. I 2-7 CULTURAL HERITAGE IMPACT ASSESSMENT 11098 DIXIE ROAD CITY OF BRAMPTON, ONTARIO REGIONAL MUNICIPALITY OF PEEL 1.0 INTRODUCTION Scarlett Janusas Archaeological and Heritage Consulting and Education (SJAHCE) was retained METRUS Development Inc. to conduct a Cultural Heritage Impact Assessment for two properties located in the City of Brampton. This report deals with the property on Lot 16, Concession 3, EHS, former Township of Chinguacousy, Regional Municipality of Peel. This property is located at 11908 Dixie Road (Figures 1 and 2). The current Official Plan designation of the proposed study area is Industrial. There is no Official Plan Amendment required to redesignate this land for the proposed employment purposes. The current zoning of the subject land is Agricultural (A), Agricultural (A-847), and Institutional 2 (12). The proposed Zoning of the subject land is a site specific Industrial One (M1) Zone, along with the Floodplain (F) for the valley feature and Stormwater Management Pond (both distant from the two heritage properties). The Countryside Villages Secondary Plan (SP48a) designates that land as Prestige Industrial, Stormwater Management Facility, Wetland, Terrestrial Features and Valleyland (MacKinnon 2010). Figure 1 General Location of Subject Property I 2-8 2 Figure 2 Draft Plan of Subdivision Identifying Property A cultural heritage study was completed in 2008 by Archaeological Services Inc. (ASI) of a larger geographic area, which included the study area. This report extracts data from the ASI report pertinent to the two properties, including a general historic overview. The purpose of conducting a cultural heritage assessment is to “…Know where the heritage value of the historic place lies; how it fits physically and functionally in its surroundings; and how it was and is important to its larger community past, present and future” (Parks Canada 2003:4). Additional research and field visits were conducted by Scarlett Janusas, B.A, M.A. of SJAHCE and Mr. David Eckler, AREA Architects, with permission of Metrus Development Inc. Curriculum vitaes of key personnel are presented in the appendices. I 2-9 3 This report provides details on the built heritage of this property and its associated cultural heritage landscape. Potential impacts to the property will be examined based on the proposed plans for subdivision and discuss any proposed mitigation measures by the proponent. The results of the cultural heritage impact assessment provides a description of the historical context of the area, the property itself, an evaluation of significant cultural features, and recommendations for adaptive reuse or alternative recommendations. I 2-10 4 2.0 HISTORIC SUMMARY The following historic summary is taken from the ASI (2008:13-14) cultural heritage assessment of a larger geographic area, as pertinent to the property. “Part of the land which encompasses Chinguacousy Township was alienated by the British from the native Mississaugas through a provisional treaty dated October 28, 1818 (Indian Treaties 1891:#19 p.47). The township is said to have been named by Sir Peregrine Maitland after the Mississauga word for the Credit River, and which signified “young pine”. Other scholars assert that it was named in honour of the Ottawa Chief Shinguacose, which was corrupted to the present spelling of “Chinguacousy,” under whose leadership Fort Michilimacinac was captured from the Americans in the War of 1812” (Mika 1977:416; Rayburn 1997:68). The township was formally surveyed in 1818, and the first “legal” settlers took up their lands later in that same year.

  • Medway Heritage Asset Review 2017 Final Draft: November 2017
    Medway Heritage Asset Review 2017 Final Draft: November 2017 Executive Summary The Medway Heritage Asset Review intends to provide a comprehensive overview of the heritage assets in Medway in order to inform the development of a Heritage Strategy to support the emerging Medway Local Plan 2015. Medway benefits from a rich heritage spanning millennia, underpinning the local distinctiveness and creating a unique and special character that can be readily interpreted through the historic environment. The main report is broken down into sections, initially looking at the topography of Medway and how this influenced human settlement in the area, then looking at the development of the key settlements in Medway; taking into consideration the key drivers for their establishment and identifying existing heritage assets. Furthermore, the main influences to development in the area are also considered; including Chatham Dockyard and the military, the brick, cement and lime industry, agriculture, maritime and religion. Through investigating Medway’s history both geographically and thematically, the significance of heritage assets and the importance of historic landscapes can be readily identified; enabling a better understanding and providing opportunities to enhance their enjoyment. Non-designated heritage assets are also identified using a broad range of sources; providing a deeper knowledge of what shapes the distinct local character experienced in Medway and the how this identity is of great importance to the local community. The report concludes with suggestions for additional areas of research and identifies themes to be considered to inform the development of a coherent and robust Heritage Strategy that will help enhance, understand and celebrate Medway’s heritage for years to come.

Since 1922, the Federal government has erected plaques and monuments on the recommendation of the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada to commemorate persons, places or events which are of national historic signifi­ cance. Locations where such commemorations take place are called national historic sites. There are now almost 800 of these sites in Canada, of which more than 200 are in Ontario. This booklet is intended to introduce the reader to those elements of Canadian national historical heritage singled out for commemoration in Ontario. For your convenience, the sites are listed alphabetically as well as by County. iv BACKGROUND INFORMATION The Historic Sites and Monuments proposals.

  • Colonel Joseph Bouchette - First Surveyor of York (Toronto) Harbour – Surveyor General of Lower Canada 1774-1841
    CCHA Report, 12 (1944-45), 43-53 Colonel Joseph Bouchette - First Surveyor Of York (Toronto) Harbour – Surveyor General of Lower Canada 1774-1841 BY THE REV. BROTHER ALFRED, F.S.C., LL.D. In May, 1793, Lieutenant-Governor John Graves Simcoe, first Governor of Upper Canada, resident, at the time, at Navy Hall, Niagara, despatched a young man of great promise to make for him and for the Governor in Chief, Lord Dorchester, a survey of Toronto1 Harbor, where it had been decided to found a new city, as a permanent capital for the recently erected province of Upper Canada. That young man was Joseph Bouchette, a youth of only 19 summers. He was to take measurements, make soundings of the bay, and report to Simcoe. There were several competent surveyors of wide experience in Upper Canada, above all in the Toronto and Niagara districts, about that time. We have their names: Augustus Jones, Gother Mann, John Collins, Robert Pilkington, Alexander Aitkin, Smith, Chewett, etc. We know what they did; and it is rather a remarkable thing that Simcoe should have passed them all over and chosen so young a man for such an important mission. The entry to Toronto harbor, today known as the “ western gap”, was apparently, in Simcoe’s time, difficult to navigate. Before Bouchette’s survey, no boat of any size entered the harbor, which was neither marked nor buoyed, unless Jean Baptiste Rousseau, who had operated, with his father, for 25 years, a counter for the trade of peltries at the mouth of the Humber River,2 and who knew every foot of the channel, was at the helm.3 Bouchette, by his labours, was to open the channel and the bay to future navigators and lake captains.

Constructed by the British following the capitulation of Fort Niagara, Fort George is of national historic significance because it served as the Headquarters of the Central Division of the British Army, and played a crucial role in the defence of Upper Canada during the War of 1812. Archaeological investigations in the last 50 years have shed light on the fort’s early structures and modifications. In 2009, funding allocated through the Federal Economic Action Plan provided an opportunity to further explore the fort’s historic transformation.
