Woburn, Toronto
Woburn is a neighbourhood located in eastern Toronto, Ontario, Canada, in the former suburb of Scarborough. Woburn is bordered by Highway 401 to the north, Orton Park Road to the east, Lawrence Avenue to the south, and McCowan Road to the west. A sub-neighbourhood, which compromises the eastern section of Woburn, named Curran Hall, borders Highland Creek river to the east, Lawrence Avenue to the south, Scarborough Golf Club Road to the west and Ellesmere Road to the north.
Residences are split between high rises and single detached homes, which account for almost ninety per cent of all residences.
A Wyandot burial mound, Taber Hill is situated in Woburn. Dating to 1250, the burial mound contains over 500 graves, with skeletons buried in a manner consistent with the Huron Feast of the Dead.
A post-office south of Painted Post Drive (formerly Danforth's Road) and Markham Road, and a schoolhouse on Ellesmere Road west of The Markham Road, today the site of Woburn Collegiate Institute, were important sites in the early community.
The intersection of Painted Post and Markham Road was also the site of the Woburn Hotel, and across the road was the Woburn Hall. The Woburn Hotel housed the meetings of the first Scarborough Council from 1850 until 1922.
Painted Post Drive connected Woburn to the southwest via Danforth Road and Danforth Avenue to Toronto, and to the east via Military Trail and Colonel Danforth Trails to Kingston Road and points east (for more details, see Danforth Avenue).
Two public school boards operate elementary schools in Woburn, the secular Toronto District School Board (TDSB), and the separate Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB). TDSB and TCDSB elementary schools include:
In addition to elementary schools TDSB also operates two secondary school in Woburn, Cedarbrae Collegiate Institute, and Woburn Collegiate Institute. TDSB is the only school board to operate a public secondary school. The French-based public secular school board, Conseil scolaire Viamonde, and it separate counterpart, Conseil scolaire catholique MonAvenir also offer schooling to applicable residents of Woburn, although they do not operate a school in the neighbourhood.
