St. Mary's Anglican Church (1908)
Structural stress on the original St. Mary's Church, built at
Pinhey's Point, North March Township by Hamnett Kirkes Pinhey in
1828, made it necessary to build a new place of worship. In 1908,
the local masonries from Carp built the new St. Mary's at its
current location, not far away from the original. Many stained
glass windows, plaques, the font for baptisms, and several other
items are in memory of Pinhey descendants.

Pinhey's Point Historic Site (1821 - 1849)
Built in stages from 1821 until 1849, “Horaceville”
was the home of Hamnett Kirkes Pinhey, a British settler who became
a leading member of Upper Canadian Society. From its humble
beginnings as a log building covered in clapboard, the house
evolved into the magnificent stone structure that exists today.
