Origin Notes and History:

Fort Rodd Hill National Historic Site designated by Parks Canada in 1958. Fort Rodd Hill National Historic Park was established 8 February 1962, extending beyond the property designated as a National Historic Site in 1958; park boundary extended 29 November 1973 to include Cole Island. Fort Rodd Hill National Historic Site and lieu historique national du Fort-Rodd Hill, as well as Fort Rodd Hill National Historic Park and Parc historique national du Fort-Rodd Hill, are all identified in "Canada's Geographical Names Approved in English and in French", published in August 1994 by Canadian Permanent Committee on Geographical Names. Parks Canada no longer uses the term 'national historic park' and the designation for the entire property was changed to Fort Rodd Hill National Historic Site of Canada and Lieu historique national du Canada du Fort Rodd Hill on 12 October 2004, per PC 2004-1160: National Historic Sites of Canada Order.
