    Fort La Cloche is an archaeological site located in La Cloche Provincial Park in Ontario, Canada. This site, which is situated on the north shore of Lake Huron, was a significant fur trading post during the 18th and 19th centuries AD. Fort La Cloche was operated by the North West Company, and it served as a vital link in the fur trade network because it facilitates the commerce between Indigenous peoples and European traders. The site provides valuable insights into the interactions and economic activities of the period, reflecting the cultural and historical landscape of early Canadian trade.
