Bronte Creek Uniquely urban Provincial Park In the heart of Oakville, residents and visitors alike flock to Bronte Creek Provincial Park - a 684 hectare (1,690 acre) park that is as large as Central Park in New York City. Home to more than 10 kilometers of multi-purpose trails, Bronte Creek also boasts a number of picnic shelters, nature centre, more than 100 campsites, children's playbarn, one of Canada's largest outdoor pools as well as a farm and a turn-of-the- century living history museum within Spruce Lane Farmhouse. Built in 1899, Spruce Lane Farmhouse, along with Silvercreek house, was owned by the apple and strawberry farming Breckon family. Members of the Breckon family continued to inhabit the home until the late 1950s, at which point it was turned into a rental property with various families living there until 1972. That's when Spruce Lane Farmhouse was acquired by the provincial government. The area's historical significance is linked to its First Nations encampment history. The waterway was utilized for fish- ing and logging and there was a brick kiln located in the area. Today the farmhouse is used as Bronte's living history museum. Though there are other farmhouses in the park, Spruce Lane is the best for heritage presentations. The museum's themes present the history of early settlement farming from the 1890s to 1910.
