Hudson's Bay Company Post - LaCloche, built 1820

Hudson's Bay Company Post - LaCloche, built in 1820.

The first buildings were at Flat Point on the north shore of Whitefish Bay, but during the period 1831 to 1837 the post operated at Sand Point on La Cloche Island opposite the presúent Birch Island Indian Reserve. The remains of these buildings have disappeared.
Most of the supplies traded for furs came from England by way of Hudson's Bay, thence by the river routes to Michipicoten on Lake Superior and on to Sault Ste. Marie, finally reaching LaCloche by batteaux.
