John Hill’s Post Office and General Store

A black and white photograph featuring a two story white townhome with two small windows on the second floor, two large windows on the ground floor under a veranda, separated by a large door on a wide street with other homes, a picket fence, trees and a large power line. Seated in front of the windows are a woman and two young children to the left, and four dark figures to the right.

Toronto Star, 1920 (estimated)

Considered one of the key buildings that marked Agincourt’s transformation into a town, John Hill’s general store and post office are pictured here in a Toronto Star photograph from the 1920s.
