A Look Back at Grantham Hall Estate

Heritage

This virtual exhibition brings to light new information about the main periods of occupancy and the remains of Grantham Hall Estate. The history of this colonial-style manor house – built between 1843 and 1846 and frequented by Canadian bourgeois elite until it was destroyed in a fire in 1922 – reveals much about the first decades of the Drummondville settlement.
