KINGSTON NAVY YARD

The Navy Yard established in 1789 as a trans-shipment point for the
Great Lakes and as the Provincial Marine's Lake Ontario base was ad-
ministered by the admiralty after 1813. During the War of 1812
Commodore James Yeo, R. N., commanded a considerable squadron
built in these yards, including the 112-gun St. LAWRENCE. This
base posed a constant threat to the Americans, who never felt strong
enough to risk a direct attack. The Rush-Bagot agreement of 1817,
which limited armaments on the lakes, brought about a decline in activ-
ity, and by mid-century the yards were closed.

L'arsenal de la marine, construit ici en 1789 par la Provincial
Marine et administré par l`Amirauté à compter de mars 1813, était
le port de transbordement des Grand Lacs. Le Commodore James Yeo
y commanda durant la guerre de 1812 une flotte considérable cons-
truite ici, dont le plus imposant navire fut le St. LAWRENCE. Les
Américains, pour des raisons stratégiques, voulaient s`emparer de
l`arsenal mais ne passèrent jamais a l`action. Le désarmement naval
convenu lots de l’accord Rush-Bagot (1817) immobilisa l`activité à
l`arsenal. Au milieu du siècle son utilité périclita devant les nouveaux
moyens de transport.

This memorial was erected by the Alumni of 1 Squadron graduating class of 1983 at the Royal Military College of Canada. Under the leadership of 14009 Chris Daley (RMC ’83), all of the 4th year cadets in 1 Squadron pitched in and helped construct the window, in the basement of the Stone Frigate building. The light stained glass windows is featuring a spider web based design, with the #1. Since spiders are so common in the (pre-modernized) building, they earned the lofted position as 1 Squadron mascot.
