Heritage Register

Overview 

Milton's Heritage Register identifies properties that have cultural heritage value or interest and helps protect them as the community grows and changes. The register supports heritage conservation by recognizing buildings, structures, landscapes, and landmarks that contribute to Milton's history and character. 

Properties on the Heritage Register may be listed or designated under the Ontario Heritage Act. Before planning changes to a heritage property, it is important to understand the property's heritage status and any approval requirements that may apply.
