History[]

The Waterdown Fire Area was a fire department that covered the village of Waterdown, Ontario, as well as the adjoining townships of East and West Flamborough. In 1974, these municipalities were amalgamated with the adjoining Township of Beverly, and the fire area became part of the Flamborough Fire Department.
