Farran's Point, Ontario

Farran's Point, Ontario

Farran's Point is an underwater ghost town in the Canadian province of Ontario. It is one of Ontario's Lost Villages, which were permanently flooded by the creation of the St. Lawrence Seaway in 1958.

Families and businesses in Farran's Point were moved to the new town of Ingleside before the seaway construction commenced.

It is the birthplace of NHL hall of famer Cy Denneny.
