NOTICES


Notice of Intention to Designate Property of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Council of The Corporation of the City of London intends to designate the following properties in accordance with the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O. 1990 as a property of cultural heritage value or interest:

Property Description: 183 Ann Street

183 Ann Street is in the North Talbot area, on a consolidated parcel comprising multiple municipal addresses at the southeast intersection of Ann and St. George Streets. The two-and-a-half-storey brick residence is located on Lot 5 of the consolidated parcel.

The Brewer’s House at 183 Ann Street (c.1893) was built by Joseph Hamilton, the brewmaster at the adjacent Kent Brewery from 1887-1916. It is a rare example of a house linked to an extant brewery where the adjacent brewer's house is also intact.

The house is a representative example of a late-19th-century residence with Queen Anne style influences. The form of the house comprises an intersecting hipped roof, and front gable end which has horizontal siding and dentilled millwork detailing. The gable ends exhibit original bargeboard wood shingling outlined with moulded vergeboards, supported by wooden end brackets and a modillion course beneath. There is a small square gable window under the eaves with a pilaster. The double front doors have a carved wood inset with two arched windows, a stained-glass transom, and are covered by a shallow overhang. Windows openings on all visible elevations have brick voussoirs. On the west elevation is a bay window with stone lug sills. The bay is topped by a flat roof and the fascia board decoratively supported by small brackets/modillions.

The present brick residence on the property was built by Joseph Hamilton around 1893, and his family continued to occupy the house until 1911. The size and scale of the house shows the increased prosperity the Kent Brewery attained under Joseph Hamilton's leadership.

Through its direct associations with Kent Brewery, the Brewer’s House at 183 Ann Street contributes to an understanding of the significant brewing history in London-Middlesex and is linked to the physical development of the surrounding area as a late-19th- and early-20th-century industrial and working-class neighbourhood and the people who lived and worked in the area during the mid-late-19th-century and early-20th-century.

Publication Date: May 19

Last Date for Objection: June 18

The full statements explaining cultural heritage value or interest and a description of the heritage attributes of the properties can be seen in or obtained from the Office of the City Clerk by phoning 519-661-CITY (2489) ext. 0916 or e-mailing docservices@london.ca. 

Any person who objects to an intended designation must, within thirty days after the date of publication, serve on the City Clerk a notice of objection in writing, setting out the reason(s) for the objection and all relevant facts. 

Property Description: 197 Ann Street

The municipal address at 197 Ann Street is in the North Talbot area on a consolidated parcel comprising multiple municipal addresses, at the southeast intersection of Ann and St. George Streets.

197 Ann Street (known as the former Kent Brewery c. 1859-1881) is located on Lot 4 and Part Lot 3 of the consolidated parcel. The brewery complex consists of 4 building parts built at different periods and continuously adapted over time. The brewery complex is representative of mid-late 19th century vernacular, industrial commercial ‘typology’. Parts of the building complex are visually discernable from the exterior, and include a primary building, old wash house, south extension, and contemporary garage. Much of what is currently recognized as the former Kent Brewery is exhibited in the original primary building as well as the wash house.

The 2-storey ‘primary building’ is a simple, rectangular brick veneer building of local buff brick, with a flat roof. The façade is relatively unadorned except for corbelled brick detailing expressed in the parapet. Many window and door openings are topped with brick voussoirs. There are several brick rounded ‘Florentine’ arches in the basement. The 1-storey ‘old wash house’ is a simple, rectangular building with a buff brick exterior. It has a similarly unadorned façade, with a flat roof sloping from front to rear. Their overall profile, massing, and scale, and modest detailing appears as they did in the at the peak of the brewery's business c1905. Collectively, both buildings retain an authentic utilitarian expression of a functioning mid-late-19th-century brewery.

Kent Brewery is one of the first breweries in London, and third most significant historic brewery in the city after Carling's and Labatt's. It is closely tied to the culture and history of the North Talbot area and the Carling's Creek and CPR corridor, and to the physical development of the surrounding area as a late-19th- and early-20th-century industrial and working-class neighbourhood. Its longevity in the neighbourhood, and the fact it is the last remaining industrial building in Talbot North sited to take advantage of Carling's Creek, makes it is a defining building of the Talbot North neighbourhood.

Publication Date: May 19

Last Date for Objection: June 18

The full statements explaining cultural heritage value or interest and a description of the heritage attributes of the properties can be seen in or obtained from the Office of the City Clerk by phoning 519-661-CITY (2489) ext. 0916 or e-mailing docservices@london.ca. 

Any person who objects to an intended designation must, within thirty days after the date of publication, serve on the City Clerk a notice of objection in writing, setting out the reason(s) for the objection and all relevant facts. DATED at London, Ontario on May 19, 2022.
