Chestnut Hall

Built in 1862, Chestnut Hall hosts the Thorold & Beaverdams Historical Society monthly meetings from September through June, as well as the Thorold Museum.

This beautiful stone building was once home to John McDonagh, who struck it rich in the California gold fields in the early 1850s. He became local lumber merchant and the Reeve of the "Village of Thorold" from 1881 to 1884.
