Save the Cabins
The “Save the Cabins” project of the Lower Thames Valley Conservation Foundation received $75,000 over six months from the Ontario Trillium Foundation in 2007 to preserve three cabins with significant heritage value at the Longwoods Road Conservation Area. Cabins were placed on concrete foundations and rotted timbers were replaced.
