Sheridan's historic hamlet was originally called Hammondsville and was renamed Sheridan in 1857; it grew around Winston Churchill Boulevard and the QEW, then formerly the Middle Road, and has largely disappeared. In 1967, Sheridan placed second in the public vote to name the new City of Mississauga. The modern neighbourhood sits just south of Dundas Street West, extending from Winston Churchill Boulevard to the Credit River.
The vast majority of homes were built between the 1960s and the 1980s, across three clearly different sub-areas. Sheridan Homelands has modest semi-detached and small detached homes dominated by two-storey and back-split forms, with streets deliberately woven to limit through-traffic. Sherwood Forest is a planned executive suburb of mostly 1980s two-storey all-brick homes, plus very large bungalows and back-splits on lots up to 150-200 feet wide at the south end. The Mississauga Road corridor historically held large colonial homes on very large lots and is now seeing extensive custom-infill rebuilds in colonial, Tudor, French country and contemporary styles.
Three sub-areas with three different housing types means three different specifications, and the Mississauga Road corridor is the standout. Active custom teardown and rebuild activity there means new large-lot houses whose garages are designed rather than inherited — that's where correctly engineered oversized and multi-bay doors, full-view glazed sections and matched architectural styling actually matter, and where spring sizing must be calculated from real door weight. Sherwood Forest's 1980s all-brick two-storeys are at the point where original openers are past end of life and predate rolling-code security; the very large bungalows and back-splits on 150-200 foot lots at the south end often have wider, heavier doors than the neighbourhood average. Sheridan Homelands' modest 1960s and 1970s stock brings the older-hardware issues — extension springs, containment cables, out-of-square framing. Credit River frontage on the western edge adds ravine damp to the streets nearest the valley.
Active custom rebuilding along the Mississauga Road corridor drives new and oversized door work, while 1980s Sherwood Forest openers are at end of life.
