History from Here: Ridley College Memorial Chapel

In honour of Remembrance Day, History from Here host Sara takes you inside Memorial Chapel at Ridley College. 🌹
Built of stone and gothic in design. Standing distinguished on the campus of one Canada’s oldest and most prestigious boarding schools. A monument to the memory of those who lost their lives in the First World War. Memorial Chapel at Ridley College reflects the spirit of Ridley students past and present.

How did the building burn? Who built the old and new? How long did it take to build? Where did they get their materials and how was it brought in? Why did they choose to build in this style? Who designed the glass and what do they represent? Did they reuse materials?
