Marlbank is a small community located in Tweed, Ontario, Canada, a few kilometres west of Highway 41.
[1][2][3] Marlbank developed around a factory that produced cement from locally-mined marl, a carbonate-rich mud or mudstone which contains variable amounts of clays and silt.
The community is the home of the hardest underwater cement in the world that built the Panama Canal.
In 1904, a fire erupted at the site which currently holds the tavern, but the building was rebuilt in 1905, and was known as The Stinson House.
Two local residents, Ray and Ivy Hutchinson, and their son David, bought and rescued this historical landmark.
