Winterbourne, Ontario : ウィキペディア英語版 | Winterbourne, Ontario
Winterbourne is a picturesque village located to the east of the Grand River in Woolwich, Ontario. It is located just northeast of the city of Waterloo. The fine stonework of the Scottish stonemasons can be seen in many of the older buildings throughout the settlement. ==History== In 1854, William Henry Lanphier built a dam on Cox Creek, so Winterbourne's first sawmill and gristmill could be established. Lanpier named the village Winterbourne, after his ancestral home in England. Chalmer's Presbyterian Church, on Katherine Street, remains virtually unchanged after 121 years. The building is in good structural condition. Everything in the church transports the visitor into the past. The house located at 35 Katherine Street served as the Presbyterian manse for many years. This 1854 home is unique for this part of Ontario. It was built by the wealthy Captain Lanphier and was a reflection of his station in life.
