In 1928, Muriel Dunsmuir married Maurice “Tolly” Wingfield and by 1932, they had built Journey’s End, a home adjacent to the Hatley Park property and in the Arts and Crafts style. In 1952, it was used as a staff residence for Canadian Services College Royal Roads and since 1988, it has been the administration building for Fort Rodd Hill National Historic Park.

Hatley Park, glen with culvert in background
Part of K. McCann
The glen was developed along the creek running to the east of the castle. When the road was built to connect the house to the Belmont gatehouse, a culvert was created to divert the water beneath the road, resulting in a spectacular waterfall on the south side. A bridge was added to create a trail and a viewing spot for the rapid flowing creek.
