Area Information: In Niall Mackay's book 'Over the hills to Georgian Bay', on page 18, he states that "In 1894 Mr. Stafford offered the O.A. & P. S. the right of way across his property....and when constructed it was 90 feet nearer to Mr. Stafford's buildings. They also erected a water tank at his back door." This tower is most likely the only remaining wooden water tower in Ontario. The Canadian National Railway (CNR) line ran from Ottawa to Depot Harbour.
