Hidden away on the Parliament Oak school grounds, near the intersection of King and Centre Streets and partially obscured by an overhanging yew, stands a bevelled hand-cut stone marker bearing the following weathered inscription:
"On this spot stood the Parliament Oak under which the early legislators sat on one day in September 1792"
Though etched in stone, the well-intentioned inscription is - unfortunately - erroneous. That celebrated torrid session of Parliament actually took place outside in August of 1793, almost a full year later.
On the top of the marker is inscribed,
"Placed here by the Niagara Historical Society 1915".
Cross Centre Street, and continue straight ahead along King Street.
