1812 Walking Tour in Kingston, Ontario-- Part 1
From the September 12, 2013, CKWS.
The walking tour covers Point Frederick and the Royal Military College. The college dates to 1876, but way before that, there was the Royal Navy Dockyard at the site. (I have mentioned it before, check out the Royal Navy Dockyard label.)
It is a one kilometer walk with 13 stations and one historic monument. Evidently, you can use your smart phone to get information, but it sounds as if there is also a printed copy of it.
