North Grenville was established in January 1998 as a township in eastern Ontario, Canada, in the United Counties of Leeds and Grenville on the Rideau River. It is composed of the village of Kemptville, and the geographic townships of Oxford and South Gower. In 2005, a motion of council adopted the designation of 'municipality'. It is located just south of Ottawa, Canada's National Capital Region.
The largest community in North Grenville is Kemptville, which had a population of 3,667 in the Canada 2001 Census.[2] It is located on the Kemptville Creek (historically South Branch of the Rideau River) in close proximity to Ottawa, sitting midway between suburban Ottawa and the Prescott-Ogdensburg bridge on Highway 416.
