Our Logo

Created by SDHS member Andrew C. Brown, the SDHS logo incorporates a photograph of Stratford’s former Land Registry and Archives Office at 24 St. Andrew St.

Constructed in 1910 by T.J Hepburn, it was designed to harmonize with the neighbouring jail and courthouse buildings designed by architect George Durand in the 1880s.

In June 2024, it was announced Here For Now Theatre would be renovating and establishing a Micro Black Box Theatre space in the building.
