Description

Stoney Creek is located on the south-western shore of Lake Ontario into which feed the watercourse of Stoney Creek as well as several other minor streams. It was settled by Loyalists after the American Revolution. The Battle of Stoney Creek during the War of 1812 occurred near Centennial Parkway and King Street. In a surprise night-time attack, the outnumbered British overwhelmed the Americans and forced their retreat to Forty Mile Creek (the present location of Grimsby). In this forty minute battle, hundreds were killed and the two American Generals were captured. Battlefield Park has a monument and museum to preserve the history of this area. Branches of the Bruce Trail provide access to Battlefield Park as well as the Devil's Punch Bowl which is marked by a large illuminated cross and offers an excellent lookout for Stoney Creek and Hamilton. The Stoney Creek Dairy on King Street, with a stylized Battlefield Monument in its logo, offered frozen treats for decades. In 2013, the dairy was torn down for re-development. Eastgate Square Mall straddles the former border between Hamilton and Stoney Creek. Due to the temperate environment, the Stoney Creek area is known for fruit growing. Most of the land mass of Stoney Creek remains agricultural. The communities of Elfrida, Fruitland, Tapleytown, Tweedside, Vinemount, and Winona are agricultural areas. Stoney Creek became a centre for light industry, road transportation and commuting residences, since its land costs were much lower than in neighbouring Hamilton. Stoney Creek is served by the Queen Elizabeth Way and an irregular network of residential streets. E.D. Smith was established in 1878 in the Niagara Peninsula when a young farmer earnestly scratched his plans and dreams into his diary. The place was 120 acres tucked under the protective shadow of the Escarpment in Ontario's Niagara Peninsula. The dream was to establish a prosperous farm for future generations, even though he was still a bachelor. He had experimented with grapes, onions, hens, cows, sheep, grain, and that year, a little patch of strawberries. He wrote that after five years tending his little acre of strawberries, he hoped he could make as much as $150 for planting, harvesting and taking the fruit to market. By 1882, his hard work began to pay off. The juicy strawberries that grew so well in this rich soil were the beginning of a food empire. After the start of the Second World War, E.D. Smith & Sons Ltd. acquired the Canadian rights to H.P. Sauce Ltd. of Britain and in 1948 the latter's subsidiary Lea & Perrins Ltd. In October 2007 E.D. Smith became a subsidiary of Tree House Foods, Inc. Its current product line includes jams and spreads, syrups, pie fillings, ketchup, sauces, and salad dressings.
