Make your best route to HIGHWAY 10 - DUNDALK (NORTH out
of SHELBURNE). There is a set of lights at the Dundalk turn off, corner of Highway
10 and County Road 9.
Note for anyone wanting supplies : There is an LCBO on the west side of Highway 10, just south of these lights. If you want food, turn into Dundalk, then travel about four short blocks. There is a supermarket to the north (off Main Street).
The following directions refer to landmarks on the Detail County Map above:
All points SOUTH or WEST (shown in orange)
At the Dundalk lights, TURN RIGHT (east) on to COUNTY ROAD
9
Travel about 4 km, to the SECOND intersection.
TURN LEFT (north) on to County Road 2 - sign points to Maxwell.
Saftey note : in about 2 1/2 km you will come to an 'S' bend in the road. The
first (southern) corner is marked at 50 kph. They mean it! (Especially in the
winter.)
Past the 'S' bend, continue roughly another 4 km. You will see a wind turbine
to your right side. The next intersection (about 500 m) is CENTRE LINE. TURN
LEFT (east)
After about 2 km, you will come to a cluster of houses. There is a small hill
down, across a concrete bridge, to the intersection with Sideroad 41.
Suggested WINTER ROUTE - (shown in pink)
Travel along Highway 10 , NORTH (from the Dundalk lights) about another 8 KILOMETERS.
The corner to CENTRE LINE is actually signposted as 'Grey 190', and marked by
a small block building (former variety store) that is to the SOUTH WEST corner.
(your left).TURN RIGHT (east) on to Centre Line.
You will be on a hard top road. About one 1 kilometre along, the road will CURVE
TO THE NORTH (your left). GO COMPLETELY AROUND THE CURVE. There is a dirt road
just at the start of the curve ** do NOT take this **.
About 200 YARDS PAST the curve, you will come to a T intersection, with a dirt
road to the east. This is again CENTRE LINE. TURN RIGHT on to this road.
WAREHAM is located at the NEXT CROSSROAD INTERSECTION, about 1 1/2 kilometres.
The shop is located in the 'collection of houses with an attitude' that makes
the cross road of the Hamlet of Wareham. The intersection is Centre Line A (west
to east) and Road 41 A (north to south). The shop is the low grey shed like
building located on the NORTH WEST corner.
