Albion and Bolton Historical Presentations
Monday October 16, 2023

This is a Show and Tell opportunity for members or guests to bring something with an Albion or Bolton connection. Presentations of about 5 minutes will work well. For those who speak, if before the meeting you can provide a photograph of your object this will be projected so all present may best see your treasure. Please email photographs to Nathan Hiller or call Nathan at 905 584-2801 to arrange for him to photograph your item.

Photos on Traffic Light Signal Boxes

The Region of Peel has initiated a programme using photographs to cover light signal boxes at intersections in downtown Bolton. The images, all heritage photos of Bolton, were selected in collaboration with the Albion Bolton Historical Society and the Town. The intent is both decorative and functional since the ‘wrapping’ is specially designed to resist the impact of graffiti on the Region’s equipment.

Enlarge images and graphics on this website

Please note that with many of the graphics (photos, maps, etc.) on our website there is a zoom feature to enlarge a portion of the graphic. You control it in a variety of ways depending on the device you are using (i.e. computer, phone, etc.). Where you have a cursor controlled by a mouse, hover over a graphic and manipulate the mouse to control the size of the portion of the graphic being enlarged. The manipulation will vary according to the type of mouse. Where you are using a phone, gestures may be used to enlarge a graphic and control the portion of the graphic being enlarged
