context_page_description: Fanshawe Pioneer Village is an open-air museum established in 1959 and located in the Fanshawe Conservation Area in London, Ontario. The village uses historical re-enactments to communicate the history of rural communities in the former townships of Westminster, London, North Dorchester, Delaware, West Nissouri and Lobo in Middlesex County from 1820 to 1920 and the founding and development of the City of London up to 1840.
  The pioneer village is owned and operated by the London and Middlesex Heritage Museum, a not-for-profit charity, with the support of the City of London, the Upper Thames River Conservation Authority, the Municipality of Thames Centre and the Municipality of Middlesex Centre.
  The intended purpose of the pioneer village is to involve the community in the preservation of history and tradition through living history experiences.
context_section_description: Tells the story of the rapid changes that marks the 20th century.
  Alder's Weaving Shed- Thomas Alder's original weaving shed dating from the 1850s.
  Denfield General Store - Here customers could purchase or order any supplies they could not grow or raise themselves, obtain needed credit or communicate with the world through the telegraph, telephone or mail.
  Peel House- Boyhood home of London artist Paul Peel. The building is representative of an urban home at the turn of the 19th century.
  Harmer Sawmill- Sawmills milled lumber for local construction.  Frame construction quickly overtook log as the dominant architecture style because of the availability of local mills.
  Dr. Jones House and Barn– This homestead is located on the edge of the Town.  While the barns are still in use, the farm land is rented to others, indicating that the owner has another income, that of a rural doctor.
  The Print Shop- Typical turn of the century print shop which produces the London Free Press and Farmers Advocate as well as printed materials made to order.
  Trinity Anglican Church- 1887 Anglican church designated by the Province as an excellent example of carpenter Gothic church architecture.
