From the plaque:
Hartin Hotel
The Hartin Hotel is located on the site of a former tavern destroyed in the fire of 1870 at the junction of Old Richmond Road and Roberson Road, midway between Ottawa and Richmond. It was used as a stopping place for farmers and their horses, and played a part in the development of Bell's Corners. The building features a side gable roof and dressed limestone construction with decorative stone quoins and voussoirs.
