One of two cannons on front lawn of Court House

Cannons

The two cannons on the Court House lawn are over one hundred and fifty years old. Requested by County Council and through the efforts of Hon. James Sutherland, the then federal member of Parliament for Oxford, they were obtained and erected in September, 1900.

Dates of 1842 and 1843 are inscribed on the barrels of these muzzle-loading cannons.
