Huron Country Gaol Investigation in Goderich Ontario
CPI Investigate the historic Huron County Gaol located in Goderich Ontario Canada.
The Huron Historic Gaol was established as the Huron County Gaol (Jail) for Upper Canada's Huron District. Clearing of the land began in Goderich, Ontario in 1839 and the jail was constructed between 1839 and 1842 using stone from the Maitland River Valley and from Michigan. The octagonal jail was designed by Thomas Young, modelled after Jeremy Bentham’s Panopticon design for prison construction, common in mid-19th century Britain and North America.
A temporary courtroom and Council Chambers were set up on the jail’s third floor. It was in this makeshift Council Chamber that the first Huron District Council meeting was held on February 8, 1842. The third floor was also used for church services and other public gatherings before proper buildings were available.
The site ceased functioning as a jail serving Huron County in 1972 and inmates were then transferred to Walkerton and Stratford jails. It was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1973.

Exploring Huron County: Goderich Day One | Ontario Travel Vlog
Rather than booking another flight to Europe I decided to spend some time exploring closer to home.
I have a few upcoming trips planned here in Canada and the United States and my first trip was over to Huron County where I spent some time visiting the different small towns along Lake Huron.
The first stop was Goderich, a small town in Southwestern Ontario where I spent four days exploring and learning more about the history of the area.
Goderich became well known in 2011 because of the tornado that destroyed the town and it's also known as the “prettiest small town in Canada”.
I definitely agree and Goderich has a very different vibe to it compared to many of the other small towns that I’ve been to. I really like the unique layout of the downtown center area and its location right on Lake Huron provides plenty of opportunity for spending time outdoors and taking advantage of some of the best that nature has to offer.
During my trip to Goderich I visited the following shops, stores, and other attractions that I would recommend checking out if you’re planning a visit:
Cait’s Cafe
Escape Room Goderich
Culberts Bakery
West Street Willy’s
Cravings Ice Cream
Huron County Museum and Historic Gaol
For accommodation, I’d recommend staying at the Hotel Samuels if you’re looking for something a little more upscale and boutique or the Benmiller Inn & Spa if you’re looking for something laid back a little more relaxing.

Goderich Gaol Visit
A very rainy Saturday took us to the Prettiest Town in Canada Goderich where we took a tour of the Historic Gaol. Complete with rain, hail and wind, the tour had a very eerie feel.
The jail was constructed between 1839 and 1842 using stone from the Maitland River Valley and from Michigan. The octagonal jail was designed by Thomas Young, modelled after Jeremy Bentham’s Panopticon design for prison construction, common in mid-19th century Britain and North America.

Kincardine to Goderich - Ontario Bike Tour #2 - Day 7 of 10
This video summarizes Day 7 of my 10 day solo bicycle trip along the shores of Lake Simcoe and Lake Huron in Southern Ontario, Canada. All of the clips in the video were filmed on Thursday July 26, 2018.
From Kincardine I headed southwest along Huron Terrace, turned right onto Kincardine Ave and followed the shoreline on Goderich St. After crossing the border into Huron-Kinloss, the name of the road changes to Boiler Beach Rd. At Concession Rd 10 I jogged inland and followed Lake Range Dr which took me over the Pine River and through Lurgan Beach.I turned right when I got to Concession Rd 2 and headed South West away from the lake. I eventually turned right onto Sideroad 25, then left onto Amberley Road (County Rd 86). When I got turned right onto Kintain I had then left Bruce County and entered Huron County and the township of Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh. I stayed on this road until I reached Belfast Rd where I turned left. I made a right turn from there onto Kingsbridge Line which I followed until Highway 21 (the Bluewater Highway). After a short stretch on Hwy 21 I turned left onto Glen's Hill Rd, and then right onto Kerry's Line. When I reached Dungannon Rd it was in the process of being paved and I turned left onto it. I made a right onto Cransford Line which I rode until Nile Rd. I continued south on Loyal Line, then West on Gore Rd back to Highway 21. After a short stretch of Highway 21 I was at the entrance to Point Farms Provincial Park.
I selected a campsite within the Colborne Campground and went for a quick swim at the beach. I then got back on the road and headed to Goderich along Highway 21. I passed the Goderich Municipal Airport, a bridge for the G2G (Goderich to Guelph) trail and the Maitland River. At the top of the hill coming into Goderich I turned right onto Gloucester Terrace where I passed the Huron Historic Gaol (Jail). I then I approached the Courthouse Square from North Street. I also went and saw the Lighthouse on Cobourg Street, and down Harbor street to see the beach and Goderich Salt Mine. I ate dinner with family at Park House Restaurant.
Strava for Day 7:
The bike I used for this trip is a New York made Linear Recumbent Bike which I believe is from around 2004. I carried my gear in 2 Giant Waterproof Panniers, and mounted my tent and sleeping pad on the top of the rack.
For more details about my gear check out this video:

Exploring the abandoned CN Meaford Sub Stayner to Collingwood ON
So here is a different kind of video which is my first time doing, thought some of you would find this interesting. On Saturday October 6 2018 I went for a bike ride along a trail from Collingwood to Stayner which runs parallel to the abandoned section of the CN Meaford Sub which runs from Utopia to Collingwood. The Barrie section of the CN Meaford Sub that runs from Utopia into Innisful is still active and sees a train roughly twice a week on Mondays and Thursdays but the businesses on Collingwood’s end weren’t really using the rail anymore so Collingwood shut down the rail in 2011.
Trail begins in Stayner ON so that’s where I began the tour and we go through roughly 10 miles of rural farmland up into Collingwood ON.
crossing locations in order:
0:15- Main st Stayner
3:15- King st Stayner
5:12- 27 28 Sideroad
6:22- Fairgrounds rd
7:00 Sideroad 33 34
8:00 Abandoned Railway bridge in Batteaux
8:25 Batteuax rd
9:10 Sideroad 36 37
10:32- Popular Side Road, Collingwood
12:18- Collins St Collingwood
This railway has got some history behind it, Last train on this line was July 14 2011. At that time the town of Collingwood marked the closure of the Barrie- Collingwood Railway services to Collingwood due to deductions of rail consumers in Collingwood since they purchased the line from CN in the late 90s.
Hope you enjoy!
