This stone building, built in 1821 by John W. Marston, is one of the oldest in Eastern Ontario.
It was originally used as a hotel before it became a general store. Several owners succeeded one another including John Millar, the Neeve brothers, and Basile R. Poulin in 1905. Adhémar Clément, an employee of Basile Poulin, bought the store in 1939 and bequeathed it to his son Henri.
This magnificent building became the Town Hall in 1968. In 1990, Claude Brabant undertook the restoration and discovered that the walls were 3 feet (0.9144 m) thick in the cellar and up to 18 inches (45.72 cm) at the top.
This beautiful building now serves as the Ontario Court of Justice.
