  • Hermitage Mansion, near Ancaster, Ontario, Canada. Was a very large and impressive house but was destroyed by a fire in the 1930's, it is now a ruin. Only the walls of the building remain, there is no roof and the inside is scattered with rubble. Prior to the fire, the Mansion had been knocked down and rebuilt once before. The first Hermitage Mansion was built in 1830 by Scotsman George Sheed, Sheed died before the Mansion was completed and the land was bought by Englishman, Otto Ives. Ives lived in the mansion for the rest of his life and died in 1853, after then the mansion was purchased by Irishman G.G Brown-Leith. It was Brown-Leith who rebuilt the mansion and knocked down the old one, it is Brown-Leith's mansion that stands there today. Brown-Leith passed the Mansion down to his daughter, Alma Dick-Laudner, the last owner of the home. The fire that destroyed the house in 1934 started as the result of a broken chimney, After the Mansion collapsed, Dick-Laudner built a smaller house actually within the ruins. This small house still stands today, though slightly worn down. Hermitage Mansion is quite haunted.
