EVENTS AT WESLEYVILLE VILLAGE 

​

Wesley Church was built by village settlers in 1860 and served as the heart of the community till 1969.

 

The Wesleyville congregation was moved to Welcome United Church and the building sat empty (but conserved) till 2009 when the Friends of Wesleyville Village leased it from the United Church.

 

Within 3 years it was restored by volunteers and serves as rural heritage community centre for all sorts of activities. Our hearts were broken by the fire on Easter Saturday 2021... but we will recover with community support -

ABOUT US >

Wesleyville village is a 19th century village located on beautiful Lakeshore Road in Port Hope, Ontario, Canada on the shores of Lake Ontario. The village is located on a quiet, seldom-travelled stretch of Lakeshore Road west of Port Hope, Ontario, and it exudes a relaxed, peaceful aura, with the only sounds coming from the birds that flit from tree to tree and among the time-weathered headstones in the graveyard at the rear of the grounds.

​

Throughout time the Wesleyville Village site on the bountiful shoreline of Lake Ontario has been occupied and respected by various indigenous peoples: the Huron-Wendat, Haudenosaunee, Anishinaabeg and Metis people. The Friends of Wesleyville Village wish to acknowledge the dynamic relationship between this environment and indigenous peoples.
