Mitchell, Community in West Perth municipality, Ontario, Canada.

Mitchell spreads across 4.81 square kilometers at the intersection of Ontario Highways 8 and 23, situated 20 kilometers northwest of Stratford and 60 kilometers north of London.

The Canada Company laid out the town plot in 1836, followed by William Hicks constructing the first log building along Huron Road in 1837.

Mitchell's Thames River Dam creates a deep pool where fishing enthusiasts gather to catch different species of fish, including carp, bass, and perch.

The West Perth Wetlands spans 65 acres with rehabilitated ponds, walking trails, and picnic areas that accommodate outdoor activities throughout the year.

Mitchell holds the distinction of being potentially the only place in Ontario named after a person of African descent.
