Notice of intention to designate 2 Peter Street

Notice of intention to designate 2 Peter Street as a property of cultural heritage value or interest, pursuant to section 29 (3) of the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. 0.18 

Dated and published at the City of Ottawa on April 5, 2024

Take notice that the City of Ottawa, on April 3rd, 2024, established its intention to designate 2 Peter Street under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act for its cultural heritage value.

Description of property

The building at 2 Peter Street is a one-and-a-half storey stone house located at the intersection of Peter Street and Harris Place, north of Meadowlands Drive. The house is located at the southwest corner of the property and its main entrance faces Peter Street.

Statement of cultural heritage value or interest 

2 Peter Street has cultural heritage value as it yields information that contributes to the understanding of Nepean’s agricultural history and the establishment of sanitary milk production in the area. The two original family owners, the Scott and Bayne families, were two early settlers from Ireland, who were prominent in dairy farming and played key roles in the establishment, and eventual growth of the Ottawa Dairy Company. The Ottawa Dairy Company was one of the first in Canada at the turn of century to implement cutting-edge systems for production, collection, storage and distribution of milk, marking an important shift towards more sanitary methods of milk handling. 

The property also has heritage value for its association with the early development of Nepean Township in the City View neighbourhood. Constructed in the mid-19th century, this early stone building was one of the first homes in the area. The property operated as a farm until the Bayne family-initiated land sales for residential development in the 1950s.
 
2 Peter Street has design value as an early example of the vernacular stone houses constructed in the Ottawa area in the early to-mid 19th century. Its T-shaped plan, one and-a-half storey form, and the use of stone quarried on-site reflects typical construction methods associated with vernacular stone houses. It features a symmetrical design, truncated side gable roof, and front gable roof. 

2 Peter Street has contextual value because it is physically and historically linked to its surroundings. Its location at the intersection of Harris Place and Peter Street and the orientation towards Merivale Road serve as a tangible reminder of the former agricultural landscape. 

Description of heritage attributes
 
Key exterior attributes that contribute to the heritage value of 2 Peter Street as an early example of a 19th century vernacular stone house include its:

  • Simple, T-shaped plan and one-and-a-half storey massing.
  • Truncated side gable roof with central gable and prominent chimneys.
  • Limestone construction, including:
    • rough cut stone laid in random courses on the north, south, and west façades
    • dressed stone laid in regular courses on the front (east) façade
  • Symmetrical front (east) façade including:
    • central entrance flanked by two large rectangular window openings with multipaned units in a six over six pattern
    • an arched opening above the entrance under the central gable
  • Large, symmetrically arranged, rectangular window openings on north, south and west façades
  • Stone sills, and voussoirs

The historical associations with the development of City View and its agricultural history are expressed through its location and orientation facing Peter Street. 

The interior of the house, the addition on the north façade and the enclosed porch on the south façade, except for the attributes outlined above is excluded from the designation.
