Repost from Canadian Curiosities
Sitting on private property at Stonehouse point just east of Glen Walter this old structure has quite a historic past. Built in 1792 known as Glengarry house it was once the home of Lieutenant Colonel John MacDonell the first speaker of the legislative assembly of Upper Canada. Until recently the structure was hidden by trees and overgrowth. The coloured photos are recent and reveal what is left of the stone structure. After 230 years, its a shame only these walls remain. I wonder what it looked like in its "hayday"

I took these photos years ago when I was in Toronto for an event, before I knew anything about Tartaria. Wish I had taken more!

Forts like this are found all over the world. Despite similar design, they're always attributed to different builders. In the case of this fort in Northern Manitoba, it doesn't make any rational logical sense as to how it was built, when it was built and who it was built by. Today, we're given a story that imo just doesn't add up. Where did they get the resources and man power to build such a structure in the middle of nowhere 250 years ago, and to protect against who?! Natives? Polar bears? Russians? Apparently the French just showed up and took the fort with little resistance. At least that part of the story makes sense.

From my last trip to Montreal, what a beautiful city! Except the roads are pretty bad.
