About the presenter
McDougall Cottage, a circa 1858 granite and limestone labourer's home, is located in downtown Cambridge in the historic factory district on the banks of the picturesque Grand River.
This cottage was home for more than a century to two families of hardworking Scots, the McDougalls and the Bairds. Today, the Cottage serves as an interpretation centre celebrating Cambridge's strong Scottish heritage.
