The Battle Honour "Queenstown" [sic] was awarded to two British regiments in the aftermath of the war: the 41st Regiment of Foot and 49th Regiment of Foot, whose successor units in the modern British Army are the Royal Welsh and the Rifles Regiments. In the Canadian Army, the Lincoln and Welland Regiment, the 56th Field Artillery Regiment, RCA, the Queen's York Rangers, the Royal Hamilton Light Infantry, and the Lorne Scots perpetuate the history and heritage of Canadian militia units that took part in the battle. These regiments also carry the QUEENSTON Battle Honour. The Ontario Highway 405 that connects the Lewiston–Queenston Bridge to the Queen Elizabeth Way is named the General Brock Parkway. Many songs have been written about the battle. In 1959, as an answer to "The Battle of New Orleans", then a hit record by Johnny Horton, Toronto radio station CHUM recorded "The Battle of Queenston Heights", with DJ Mike Darow on lead vocals. Credited to "Mike Darow and the CHUMs", the number became a regional hit in its own right, reaching the top twenty on CHUM's own chart. Multiple streets, avenues, roads, and a university in Ontario are named after Major General Brock, as is the city of Brockville in the province.
