9581 Ladner Trunk Road, <strong>Delta</strong>, BC<br />

<strong>The</strong> tiny village <strong>of</strong> East <strong>Delta</strong>,<br />

consisting <strong>of</strong> a store, a<br />

blacksmith shop and several<br />

small residential lots, formed in<br />

1911 at the crossroads <strong>of</strong> Ladner<br />

Trunk Road and Mathews Road<br />

(96 th Street). <strong>The</strong> village grew<br />

around the existing East <strong>Delta</strong><br />

School and St. Stephen’s<br />

Church. Butler’s Store and gas<br />

station saved the local farmers<br />

a long, bumpy and usually<br />

muddy drive into Ladner.<br />
