This is a collection of photos from the Eldon House in London, Ontario. The Eldon house is the oldest standing house in our town.

Eldon House is the former residence of the prominent Harris Family and oldest surviving such building in London. An Ontario Historical Plaque was erected by the province to commemorate The Eldon House's role in Ontario's heritage. Archives of Ontario. 2005. "Built in 1834 by Captain John Harris, Royal Navy, treasurer of the London District, Eldon House is London's oldest remaining house.

Our town was originally a British navy and military outpost with strategic positioning against the USA. Protected by water on most sides, quick access to both Buffalo and Detroit, any attack on Toronto would likely have to pass by London first.
