South Grenville flourished during Canada’s beginnings. As a forwarding centre Prescott was crucial to the transportation of products from Montreal to Toronto. Fort Wellington was built to defend the shipping route during the war of 1812. The Fort was used again in 1837 when Upper and Lower Canada rose up in rebellion. The area has many Ontario Heritage Act Designated Properties which are protected from being destroyed. The properties are maintained, restored and are a perfect example of how South Grenville prides itself on the history of the area.

Did you know that by 1887 J.P. Wiser’s Distillery, Labatts and Grenville Breweries were established in South Grenville? In addition to the alcohol production industry there were several alcohol consumption locations; 23 hotels & 24 taverns! (Dodge & Brown, 2012) Although the alcohol producers are long gone you can still find taverns & hotels in the area. For a history on each municipality CLICK HERE.
