Russell History Tour Highlights Barnardo Home and Boulton Manor
Russell attracts visitors with historic sites including the Barnardo Home ruins and the 1894 Boulton Manor built by Major Charles A. Boulton. The Red House, Russell’s oldest standing home, holds 1914 to 1917 military papers found in 1994. The town honors Boulton's Scouts who fought in 1885, with a memorial at 219 Westbourne St. E and a private Cairn nearby. The area offers the Trans Canada Trail, Millennium Park, and a Volksmarch for walkers and bikers.
