Description : The Bradford West Gwillimbury Local History Association will be working with architects Nancy Smith and Gillian Hurley to undertake an Historic Building Inventory of the old town of Bradford. The project started about two years ago, when members of the Association found a 1924 map of Bradford in the Ontario Archives. Since then, the BWG Local History Association has been taking photographs and preparing background material, relating to the homes, stores and other buildings that appear on the old map. There are over two hundred locations involved in this study. Smith and Hurley will be working with all available records to "produce an easy-to-understand working record and analysis of the built form in town." The work is being done on a volunteer basis, and the BWG Local History Association is asking for the assistance of residents - especially those who live in a home that was built before 1924. The study team is interested in any old photos of your home, and descriptions of construction details and additions.
