Welcome to the site dedicated to the historic Lambton House, located on the east bank of the Humber River. Originally built in 1847 and opened in 1848, the Lambton House operated for 140 consecutive years until it was closed in 1988 for local development. Through the actions of local residents and Heritage York, the building was rescued from demolition and restored as an integral part of the local community.

The Lambton House is currently being used for a number of community and historical events. The building is rented for everything from birthdays to business meetings. Heritage York holds monthly community pub nights.

Each October, on the anniversary of Hurricane Hazel, a well attended memorial evening with survivors, rescuers and the community share their memories of this life-altering event.

Lambton House was one of the original participants in the annual Doors Open event, where historical sites' doors are open to the public. Through our association with various historical groups and associations, both historic and nature walks use the Lambton House as a major stop in their events.

We invite everyone to come by and check out the last remaining historically designated building on the Humber River from the Lambton Mills period. Come by and learn the important roles the Lambton played in the history and development of this great city.

We look forward to seeing you.
