    Recognized as one of the best small towns in Ontario by Comfort Life, a Canadian retirement living website, Newcastle is a gem waiting to be discovered. Incorporated as a town in 1856, Newcastle remained a small community until the 1990s when new residential development began, causing a rapid increase in population.
    The name "Town of Newcastle" was used from 1973–94 for the municipality now called the Municipality of Clarington. The name was changed in 1994 to alleviate longstanding confusion between the municipality as a whole and the community of the same name. The community was commonly known as "Newcastle Village" to distinguish the two.
    Winters are bitterly cold and often bring heavy snowfall. However, Newcastle benefits from the moderating effect of Lake Ontario, which means that its winters are not as harsh as some other areas of Ontario. The town has an average July high of around 25 deg C, and an average January low of -8.5 deg C.
    Wilmot Creek, a neighbouring community, was named after him. The name "Town of Newcastle" was used from 1973–94 for the municipality now called the Municipality of Clarington. The name was changed in 1994 to alleviate longstanding confusion between the municipality as a whole and the community of the same name.
