The Old Church of the Epiphany at 141 BRONTE ROAD was built in 1931 as the home of the Anglican Church in Bronte and was erected on lands donated by John Wilson. The building is reminiscent of the gothic style of the nineteenth century with its pointed lancet multipaned windows, high gable roof, gabled porch and belfry. The Old Church of the Epiphany is one of the few remaining significant heritage buildings from Bronte‘s past and is a reminder of the important role that the Anglican Church has played in Bronte. 2495 BRONTE ROAD was built in 1860 by Dr. Anson Buck who was one of the most important figures in the history of Palermo and the surrounding district. The house is an example of the Lâ€"shaped Italianate style with some Gothic Revival influences. Although the house has been converted into a restaurant, it remains virâ€" tually intact today and is one of the most architecturally significant heritage buildâ€" ings in rural Oakville. 40 COX DRIVE â€" ENNISCLARE was built in 1910 for Herbert C%)Iin Cox, President and later Chairman of the Board of Canada Life Assurance Company. Born in 1873 Herbert Cox was the son of George A. Cox, one of the most influential men in Canada at the turn of the century. * Ennisclare is an excellent example of the grand estate houses that were constructâ€" ed by the wealthy of Ontario up to the 1930‘s. The building is a white stucco clad structure, built in the Colonial Georgian revival style. Although the building has been converted to apartments, its external appearance has changed little from the days when it was owned by Herbert Cox. Outstanding interior features which remain include the original porcelain washing fixtures with brass trim, high baseâ€" goards, tile floors, the parquet morning room floor, original moulding and original loors. 234 LAKESHORE ROAD EAST is a threeâ€"storey brick commercial building built c. 1855 by Captain William Wilson. The bricks from which the building was built are said to have been brought to Oakville as ballast in Captain Wilson‘s schooner. Original details that have. been retained include the steeply pitched roof, the symâ€" metrical front elevation, two dormers, brick walls to the east and west facades and brickwork along the roofline. An interesting feature of the building is the remnant of a turn of the century advertisement painted on the upper west facing facade. 156 RANDALL STREET is a small frame house built c. 1850 by Charles Davis who was one of the first shoemakers to come to Oakville. The land on which the house stands today was originally owned by William Chisholm as part of his 960 acre purchase from the Crown in 1827 for the town site of Oakville. The house is a repâ€" resentation of the Oakville vernacular style. Features of the house include the steeply pitched central gable in a medium pitch roof, an ornate Roman arched window and a symmetrical facade. 1054 THIRD LINE was built c. 1858 by the Hilton Family who had a prosperous fruit farming operation and one of the largest orchards in the Township. The Hilton house is a vernacular design incorporating elements of various architectural styles and is constructed in rubble stonework using colourful local fieldstone, a rare feaâ€" ture in Oakville. There are wellâ€"cut stone lintels over the windows and upper floor door, and rusticated stone quoins on the corners and on the projecting central bay. 76 THOMAS STREET was built in 1870 by John Williams who settled in Oakville in 1852 and became the proprietor of the Oakville House Hotel. With the arrival of the Hamilton and Toronto Railway to Oakville in 1855, he built the Railway Station Hotel and the Canadian Hotel (The Murray House). Another owner was Nellie Hunter who lived in the house for over forty years and, as a result, the house is known today by many old Oakville residents as "The Nellie Hunter House". : The house which forms an important gateway to the Old Oakville Heritage Conservation District is a large brick and frame residence built in the late Victorian, highly decorative style and notable for its outstanding moldings and brickwork.
