The history of Gore's Landing and the Victoria Inn
Gore's Landing was named after Thomas Gores, an Irishman who settled in the vicinity in 1845. The Landing was the terminal point for a plank road from Cobourg to Rice Lake. Several renowned personages have been residents including: Archibald Lampman (poet), J.D. Kelly (historical artist), G.S. Hayward (miniaturist painter), Catherine Parr Traill (writer). The Landing continues to attract artisans, poets and writers and serves as a link to the heritage of Ontario's past.
The Inn was erected in 1902 as 'The Willows', private summer residence of Gerald S. Hayward, one of Canada's most prolific and finest miniature portrait painters. His career took him around the world, painting royalty and other persons of note.
