Huntley Heritage

Second in the Series










S.S. No. 1 Huntley - Mulligan’s School

2193 Richardson Side Rd., Carp. 

Thomas Mulligan donated land in 1820 for the site of “Mulligan’s School”.  Initially there were log structures before a stone building was erected in 1883.  An organ was installed in 1929.  The building ceased operation as a school in 1957 and became a residence for several families.  In 1989, it was converted into the popular “Cheshire Cat” old English pub, and is also a designated heritage site.
After a devastating fire, The Cheshire Cat is now back in business at Christmas 2013.
