42 Built Heritage Resource ame: Millennium Trail Sandy Hook Road 1879 Former Railway Line Y The Millennium Trail was established in 1997 by converting the former C Railway line into a 49 km recreational trail system. The right-of-way containing the former rail line is approximately 15 m in width and winds through the Study Area in an east-west direction. The line runs approximately parallel to the Loyalist Parkway, intersecting the road at various points. Although adaptively reused, the trail does not meet design criteria outlined under O. Reg. 9/06. The original railway line was opened by the County Railway in 1879 and ran from Picton to Trenton. In 1882 the railway was amalgamated by the Central Ontario Railway. In 1911 the company was taken over by Canadian orthern Railway, and in 1918 it became part of Canadian ational Railway. As occurred throughout the province in the 20th century as a result of the advancement of the automobile, the line was abandoned in It is associated with the development of 19th century transportation networks, particularly the advancement of the railway and the increased efficiency in the movement of goods in the region. In addition, its abandonment is associated with the decline of the railway in the region. Satisfies criteria 2.i and 2.ii under O. Reg. 9/06. The former railway line ran from Picton to Trenton. It contains contextual value as it contributes to the character of the area, specifically the rural character as the line facilitates the rapid movement of goods through the region. The former line is also historically linked with the region as it was constructed at the height of demand for rural goods. The area is indicative of landmark status as it was highly visible and recognizable in the landscape. With the 20th century decline of the railway, the later adaptive reuse continued the physical, visual and historic links of the line to the community. As a direct route from Picton to Trenton, the former line provides the historical context of 19th century rural production and as such the area is a local landmark. The former railway satisfies criteria 3.i and 3.ii under O. Rag. 9/06. The former railway line right-of-way measures approximately 15 m and contains 49 km of paved recreational trail. Its location throughout the country side of County is uninterrupted providing the historical context of the original railway. (name): Heritage Resource/Landscape umber: Date Completed: CHL 21 38

79 Orser House 622 County Road 1 (Scoharie Road) pre-1863 Farmstead Y The farm complex at 622 County Road 1 is comprised of a one and a half storey farmhouse, two long low-profile steel clad barns/sheds, a large dairy barn, a silo, and associated agricultural fields and tree-lines. Views of agricultural buildings are obscured from the road by trees, the farmhouse and the rise in elevation from the roadway to the farmhouse. All of the barns appear to have gabled roofs. The now disused dairy barn has a saltbox addition to its front elevation. The paddock around the former dairy barn has been grown over with deciduous trees. The design of the farmhouse was heavily influenced by the vernacular interpretation of the early Gothic Revival style, emphasized by the prominent steep pitched central gable and the symmetrical front facade. In addition, design elements of the farmhouse include: a five bay front with wide central front doorframe; central front gable with square sash attic window; small attic vents below side gables; brick chimney on front façade; and a one storey frame addition on the back of the building.

In 1863, the property was owned by Joseph J. Orser. The house is also shown on Belden's atlas, at the time being owned by Joseph Corman (who appears to have acquired the property in 1866). The farmstead is associated with the Orser Cemetery opposite County Road 1 although the land on which the cemetery and church sit was not donated by the owner of this property. In addition, the farm's function as a dairy farm suggests associations with the cheese making heritage of the area, in particular to the Union Vale Cheese Factory which operated west of the farm from 1894 to 1923 (likely in Lot 13, Concession 3 Military Tract). Satisfies criteria 2.i and 2.ii of O. Reg 9/06.

The cemetery is comprised of rows of 19th and 20th century grave markers and a tree break of large maple trees delineates property boundary (Lot 15, Concession 2 Military Tract). Design elements of the meeting hall include: brick construction; gable roof; 4-over-3 windows; fieldstone stone foundation; small side addition along southern elevation; returning eaves; and two front entrances. The driveway runs southwest from road, uphill. The church is a good example of Methodist Episcopal vernacular rural church construction which has very little detail, no stained glass and is designed more as a residence and meeting hall than a traditional Anglican or Catholic church. However its architectural style still supports the characteristics of the area and the original function of the building is clearly recognizable. Satisfies criterion 1.i of O. Reg. 9/06.

84 Scott's Mill Con 1 Lot 26 c1810 Marysburgh Mill Y The mill, a 1 1/2 storey wooden building, is at the north east corner of Crowes and Scott's Mill Road and is connected to the town of Milford by a stone bridge topped with a modern guardrail. Limestone outcrops are visible around the mill. There is a small washroom building located to the west of the main mill building. Ruins of former sluice line appear lie to the north of the building along Crowes Road. The grist mill building was greatly reduced in size in the 1920s, from 2 1/2 stores to 1 1/2 and all window locations changed; the door remains in the original location. Timber salvaged from the removed upper storey was used to renovate the structure; the result is the current configuration. The two mills at Milford, marked on the Tremaine atlas, were built to serve the needs of the community during the boom years when barley was in high demand. Scott's Mill was built by Joseph Clapp around 1810 and was the second mill in the area. The facilities were relocated from below Milford Falls to the low escarpment south east of Milford Falls, west of the original site. The mill changed hands in 1886 and was sold to W.B. Scott in In WW 2 the mill was used as a grist mill and saw mill, but ceased operation in the 1940s due to the passing of the lumber industry and the use of privately owned or larger mills. The mill, the mill pond, and the dam were sold to the Region Conservation Authority in 1975 for water management. Today, it has been restored and functions as a museum. Historical photographs show that the site also had a sawmill, a blacksmith shop and farm buildings in close association with the grist mill. Aerial imagery Recent photographs appear to indicate possible building foundations or alterations to the land made to serve the purposes of the mill. The original Little Giant turbine remains in place and is considered unique for its disproportionate power output. There was a holding pond located on ground above the mill. The associated saw mill would have served shipbuilders in the town in the 1870s. South Bay barley was used by American purchasers to make beer-- Milford produced the ships, sawed the lumber and served the local farmers looking to ship their grain to market. Aerial views show a creek bed and possible holding pond to the north of the mill. This may have been the water source for the mill. There is also what appears to be a man-made formation running from this pond to just west of the existing mill. Defining characteristics include the timber construction, the unpainted vertical wooden siding, the gable roof, and all remaining milling infrastructure. It is an early example of milling technology in the region and remains a rare survivor. Satisfies criteria 1.i and 1.iii of O. Reg. 9/06. Directly associated with milling activity in the region as well as the development and subsequent growth of Milford. The mill was influential in the settler economy and provided an essential service to the community. It also 80

85 contributes to an understanding of the community through physical representation of early technology and its recent mandate as a museum. Scott's Mill is linked directly with the development and growth of the surrounding community, specifically Milford, as it provided a catalyst for development. Its location near water power took advantage of the natural topography around which transportation networks formed to facilitate the movement of people and goods throughout the 19th century. Satisfies criteria 3.i, 3.ii and 3.iii of O. Reg. 9/06 Timber construction throughout, side gabled roof, 12 paned window and all remaining milling infrastructure (Little Giant turbine). Position adjacent to water and roadways adds to its landmark status.
