5 masts still there in August 2016, shame it's going to waste.

Yes, though they are heavily rusted, and expected to come down in a couple years.

The B&B is closed.

JB The Quarry was originally part of the Aboriginal reservation lands.

Can anybody describe the history of this quarry for us?

Are the towers still there, even if not used?

What does "Vidmar Funghi" even mean?

This quarry is deep.

The Lighthouse Chapel is located on the corner of King Street and Gore Street in the old Parish Hall which was formerly owned by The Roman Catholic Church. The Good Shepherd Lutheran Church has never been located on the corner of King Street and Gore Street.

Some of the roughest, toughest hombres from around the region receive their vocational education here.

Shawn, do you think that the hauntings may be related to the Natives who once inhabited this land?

The correct spelling of this church is Good Shepherd Lutheran Church

Supposedly haunted. People have been coming down to this location since the 1950s for a thrill at night. Texas Road that leads to this point from Amherstburg is also thought to be a 'haunted' road. Many strange occurrences and urban legends have grown up around here. First settled in the 1880s, Natives were here long before.

Originally the "Liberty Theater"

Former site of Fort Covington. (A temporary American fort during the war of 1812)

From http://www.windsorpubliclibrary.com/digi/war1812/contents/invasion/skirmishes.htm On July 16, General Hull sent a troop of Americans under the command of Colonel Cass to see how close they could get to Amherstburg. Two British soldiers, James Hancock and John Dean, defended the bridge over the River Canard. Hancock was killed and Dean taken prisoner. Hancock was the first British casualty of the war. The Americans captured the bridge. Hull refused to give Col. Cass the supplies he demanded and Cass had to withdraw his troops to Sandwich. On July 19 and 20, the Americans tried to advance again. By this time, the British had destroyed the bridge and stationed the warship Queen Charlotte at the mouth of the river. They were able to hold the Americans off. Native warriors ambushed some American soldiers near Turkey Creek on July 25. Six American soldiers were killed. Immediately on the declaration of war being notified, the militia assembled as they had done on the Niagara frontier, but when the Americans began to demonstrate their intention of coming across, -- the whole body made room for them by a timely retreat, -- So they landed on the Canadian shores without opposition, -- but their scouts advancing to reconnoitre Amherstburg, were always checked at the River Canard, (three or four miles from that place) - by a small detachment of troops and Indians.
