From the Oxford County Library: “The Stone Houses of Zorra Project is an effort to document pioneer field stone farm houses in Zorra Township, Oxford County. Gathering information from published local history books, newspapers, land records and present day owner interviews, this work hopes to consolidate the chronicles of stone houses in one place. With new photography, combined with historical imagery, a visual path to the past is established. These stone structures are a part of our cultural heritage and the rural Oxford County landscape.”
If you have an event, pictures and articles concerning the history of Oxford County that you would like published on the Society’s blog please email us at info@oxhs.ca
