History

The modern Morgan's Grant was originally part of the Township of March, and was first settled by Europeans in the early nineteenth century, many buildings from the 1800s still exist and are active to this day, such as "806 March Road" and "160 Flamborough Way", 160 Flamborough Way was actually a Loyal Orange Lodge, number 338, during the 1800s where farmers would meet up, and the St Isidore Church was also a part of Township of March in the 1800s. Development of the area began in the late 1980s and more construction of schools and houses during 2000–2009 with homes around the main streets of Morgan's Grant Way, Allenby Road, Ipswich Terrace, Halton Terrace and Flamborough Way, Mersey Drive, leading up to Terry Fox Drive and Monk Environmental Park. Starting in the mid to late 1990s, expansion began by Minto Developments to the north and has since reached up to Old Carp Road.
