Built in 1817/1818, this large two story building served at a men's barracks in the 19th century. Known at the new barrack, it could house 100 soldiers. Built of log and brick, it was defensible, with musket loopholes instead of windows. It saw many uses during the 20th century training camps. Today it is home to the Lincoln and Welland Regimental Museum, open during the summer months, daily from May 18, until Labour Day, 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. For information contact: Lincoln and Welland Regiment website www.lwmuseum.ca/
