Few communities in Ontario have a history as closely tied to the agricultural settlement of Huron County as South Huron. The municipality brings together the town of Exeter, the village of Hensall and rural districts shaped by grain farming and livestock. The Ausable River runs through Exeter, providing a defining geographic thread in this inland part of southwestern Ontario. South Huron was incorporated in 2001 through the amalgamation of Exeter, Hensall, Stephen Township and Usborne Township, reflecting the close links between its smaller settlements and surrounding farmland. Exeter remains the local service centre, with shops and community facilities along its main streets.
