Cultural Heritage Resource Survey CULTURAL HERITAGE RESOURCE SURVEY 7143 Ashburn Road, 1877 BROOKLIN SECONDARY PLAN AREA TOWN OF WHITBY, ONTARIO REVISED December 2014 Prepared for: Brooklin Landowners Group Prepared by: WAYNE MORGAN HERITAGE PLANNER CULTURAL HERITAGE RESOURCE SURVEY BROOKLIN SECONDARY PLAN AREA TOWN OF WHITBY, ONTARIO December 2014 REVISED Prepared for: Brooklin Landowners Group . Prepared by: Wayne Morgan, Heritage Planner PO Box 1203, 21 Land’s End Sutton West, Ontario L0E 1R0 Telephone: 905-722-5398 E-mail [email protected] Cultural Heritage Resource Survey Page i Brooklin Secondary Plan Area Town of Whitby, Ontario EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Town of Whitby is undertaking the Brooklin Study to prepare plans for growth management in the Brooklin area. Stage 1 involves the preparation of background studies to inform the secondary plan. The Brooklin Landowners Group is working collaboratively with the Town in preparing some background studies for Stage 1. This cultural heritage resource survey identifies cultural heritage resources in a Study Area that forms a horseshoe around the existing development in Brooklin. This survey documents existing and potential cultural heritage resources within and adjacent to the Study Area and reviews both existing and proposed heritage policies in the Town’s Official Plan and recommends additional policies for the Brooklin Secondary Plan. After a review of the historical development of the area within its larger geographic context, a survey of existing and potential heritage resources was conducted within and adjacent to the Study Area making use of various heritage lists developed by the Town, historic and recent maps of the area, historic and current aerial photographs, material in the Whitby Archives including historic photographs, a variety of published sources and area site visits. All roads within the study area were driven and, in some cases, sections walked. Existing and potential cultural heritage resources were photographed from the road except where public access was permitted. The resources were assessed based on heritage integrity and the evaluation criteria established by Provincial regulation The area, surveyed into lots and concessions in 1795, was developed largely for agricultural purposes, although two mills, one in and one adjacent to the Study Area, were developed. One of the two area railways, the Port Whitby to Port Perry Railway, had considerable local significance in its development and its attempt to define Whitby’s hinterland. Where still visible, the alignment of this railway was identified as a linear cultural heritage resource. The Study Area has remained largely rural to this day, with the cultural heritage resources being primarily farmsteads and farm houses. One school, now a community centre; one cemetery; houses associated with the mills; a farm associated with a soil conservation conference and an international ploughing match; and nine road segments were the other types of cultural heritage resources identified. Within the Study Area, 11 Built Heritage Resources and 15 Cultural Heritage Landscapes were identified. A Cultural Heritage Landscape (CHL) may include one or more built resources together with landscape features immediately around those built resources. The nine road segments were also identified as CHLs. In total, 35 properties and 9 road segments have known or potential cultural heritage values, of which 28 properties were within and 7 adjacent to the Study Area. Six additional properties in the Town’s Heritage Register do not have significant cultural heritage values. Three of the 35 properties were identified as having outstanding cultural heritage values. It is recommended that: 1. the 6 properties not having significant cultural heritage value be removed from the Register; 2. the 3 properties with outstanding cultural heritage values be designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act; 3. the Port to Port Railway alignment, where it still exists, be commemorated; 4. where possible, conserve the 9 road segments having cultural heritage value; 5. the municipality work with the owners of the 18 properties within and adjacent to the Study Area not listed in the Heritage Register to include them in the Register; 6. a heritage impact assessment be required with any planning application in the Study Area involving or adjacent to a property identified in this Survey as having a designated or potential cultural heritage resource; and 7. either the Whitby Official Plan or the Brooklin Secondary Plan include policies that define the scope and application of a heritage impact assessment.

As with all research, it is inevitable that there will be conflicting facts and information pertaining to dates, names and locations, due to the discrepancies in historical and personal documents. We have endeavoured to be as accurate as possible by researching newspaper stories, obituaries and obtaining personal information from families. If there are errors, we would be happy to hear about them and if the new information can be confirmed, corrections will be made if the publications is reprinted in the future. J.
