Lount Castle

If you happen to be cruising the neighbourhood, check out Lount Castle on Valley Drive, built in 1878 on a hill that was then on the outskirts of Barrie. The Lount Family name was well-known at the time with a Member of Parliament, United Empire Loyalist and the registrar for the County of Simcoe. The owner of the ‘castle’ William Lount, a Queen’s Counsel and judge in the High Court of Ontario, went on to represent North Simcoe In the local legislature and the Toronto Liberals in the then Dominion government. This majestic house has a Mansard roof with a gothic atmosphere and was quite advanced for its time with many ‘modern’ conveniences such as hot water throughout.
