Historic Post Card of Highland Creek. Do you recognize the building? Or the children on the front porch? It has a postal cancellation from West Hill dating it to December 2 1932. In those days Highland Creek was part of the West Hill postal area. This photo is copyright Larry Laevens and is used with permission. (2002).

Few remember that the mouth of the Rouge River was once cottage country. These three photos of West Hill in the 1930's are copyright Rosanna Renshaw (2002).

Here is a better view of one of the cottages that lined Lake Ontario at what is now Rouge Beach.

As you can see the beach remains substantially the same. Thanks to Mrs. Renshaw for sharing these memories.

Now what do you have to share?
