Lordly House & Park Restoration

The Society was formed in 1981 and operates with a board of directors and members at large. Since inception the CMHS has acquired the Chester Train Station, rebuilt the Lightfoote tower, and gained control through purchase or lease of a complete village block.

This spring, we expect to complete the renovation of Lordly Park, for community use.

The Visitors Bureau section of the train station has received a coat of paint.

We are now  engaged in the beginning a stragetic and business plan for the society.

Our Goals

-Achieve the protection and preservation of Lordly Park’s environmental resource and beauty for use by community members of all ages.

-Restore Lordly House, an exceptional heritage treasure to museum standards

-Develop Lordly House for important community and educational use, including year round operation as a museum complex, public archive, genealogical research centre, historical exhibition space, and youth and community education centre.
