Home > Swansea, Ontario
Swansea was a village which, in 1967, was annexed by the city of Toronto, Ontario and is today one of the city's many neighbourhoods. Its boundaries are the Humber River to the west, High Park to the east, Bloor Street to the north, and The Queensway to the south (near the shore of Lake Ontario). Its roots date back to the 17th century, when Jean Baptiste Rousseau established a trading post in the area in 1670. The community is characterized by its rolling hills, which is similar to the landscape found in Swansea, Wales, after which the village was named.
