Dutton/Dunwich

The landscape around Dutton is a gently rolling agricultural plain north of Lake Erie, which has shaped both the settlement’s compact form and its farm-based economy. The community forms part of the Municipality of Dutton/Dunwich in Elgin County, amid fields characteristic of southwestern Ontario’s lake plain. Ontario Highway 3, known here as the Talbot Trail, runs through Dutton and recalls the early-19th-century road and settlement scheme associated with Colonel Thomas Talbot. Lake Erie’s north shore is close to the south, placing the town within a distinctly rural corner of the province.
