History

Woburn was initially called "Elderslie." In 1856, the name was changed when a post office was opened in the Woburn Inn. The owner of the Woburn Inn was Thomas Dowswell, who originated from a small town in England called Woburn.

The Woburn Inn was historically important in that it was the original meeting place for the Scarborough Municipal Council. The former Township of Scarborough continued to carry out their meetings at the Woburn Inn until 1921, when council chambers were moved to Kingston Road.

When the urbanization of this community took place in the 1950s, the historic Woburn Inn was destroyed to make room for the Painted Post Plaza. A large stone marker with a historical plaque stands next to the shopping plaza in tribute to the Woburn Inn.
