About the event

Peter Robinson’s Peterborough - Walking Tour
Explore historic locations significant to the Peter Robinson immigration in Peterborough's contemporary downtown.

Locally based historians Elwood Jones and Don Willcock will lead a leisurely walk from Confederation Park along Water Street to Millennium Park. The focus is on what Peterborough (known to Peter Robinson as ‘the Depot’) looked like in 1825. While in Millenium Park, the Peterborough Canadian Irish Club will reveal a commemorative plaque in honour of the 200th anniversary of the arrival of the Peter Robinson Irish emigrants to the region, in combination with the 50th anniversary year of the PCIC. The tour will end in the aptly named ‘Peter Robinson Room’ of Princess Gardens for refreshments. This tour is hosted by Trent Valley Archives.
Good to Know: This event requires ticket purchase in advance and is subject to availability.
