History:
In 1887, the establishment of the Glass Brothers' pottery a few miles east of London gave rise to the small community of Pottersburg. The hamlet later known as London Junction, was annexed by the city in 1912. (London 200, pg 140) Architectural Styles: This area expanded rapidly after the ending of WWII, so there are pockets of areas of wartime houses. There are also a few older homes from the Victorian era. Schools The school facilities listed show the schools located in the area. No assumption of automatic enrolment of your child into any particular facility is implied. Parents must speak to the school board of interest for child enrollment.
