Brockville in Leeds and Grenville United Counties, Ontario — Central Canada (North America)
Fulford Place
Cette belle et spacieuse résidence de style éclectique de la belle époque au Canada est l’œuvre de l’architecte américain A. W. Fuller. Elle témoigne de façon remarquable de la manière de vivre de l’élite des entrepreneurs canadiens, dont le sénateur George Fulford (1852-1905), qui fit fortune dans les médicaments brevetés. Elle a conservé une grande partie des meubles, des appliques, de la vaisselle, du linge et des objets d’art d’origine, évoquant ainsi l’époque dans ses moindres détails. Les jardins, dont subsistent d’importants éléments, avaient été aménagés par la prestigieuse firme d'Olmsted Brothers.
Erected 1997 by Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada / Commission de lieux et monuments historiques de Canada.
