Bond Head Booketeria a novel idea

An article about the creation of a "Booketeria" in order to help provide library services to the Bond Head area.

Barrie Street Post Office

This is the post office built in 1936, replacing the old building on Holland Street. It was replaced in 1965 by the John-Barrie Streets post office, though the building still stands as an office building today.
The photograph was given to the Library in 2017.

9 John Street West

The building seen in this photo (from 1995) was once located on the north side at 9 John St. West. It was a long, one-storey, frame house with a verandah on the south side and a small porch on the east side (facing Barrie Street). Dick Crake and his sister lived here for a number of years after he moved from a large house on the northwest corner of Holland and Church Streets. They both died here around the time of World War II. John Metcalfe later moved here from a farm on Highway 88 (at the west end of town). He lived in the house as a bachelor until his death. The house was eventually demolished and the Bradford Post Office was built by Art and Leonard Saint at this location. (1, 2)
