Museum and Archives
Municipal Hall, c1938 / Now known as Heritage Hall
The Pitt Meadows Museum and Archives is located in the Old General Store building on Harris Road. The main part of the building dates to the 1880's and was moved from its original location near Herring Road to its present site in 1908.
The building housed Pitt Meadows' first post office (in use until 1944) and one of its earliest stores (in use until 1931). After 1931 the building was used primarily as a residence and received municipal heritage status in 1988.
By the mid 1990s the building was vacant and had fallen into a state of disrepair. It was purchased in 1997 by the City of Pitt Meadows, and, after eight months of restoration, the Pitt Meadows Heritage & Museum Society became its new tenant.
Artifacts relating to the pioneer and agricultural history of the community are located on the first floor of the Museum, with offices, work and storage areas and a small community archives and reference library located on the upper floor.
