First founded in 1834, Bronte was originally a simple and small fishing village, growing gradually until is was annexed in 1962 into what is now Oakville.
One of the first industries in Bronte was called stonehooking. Stonehooking was a novel process to harvest construction materials from lake Ontario. Workers would drive boats into the shallow waters and hook stone slabs, harvesting them for use as a construction material. The historical building at 49 Bronte road built in 1840 is an example of a building that used the stonehooking material from the lake.
Bronte's first harbour was completed in 1856. Boats have sailed out of the Bronte's harbour for almost two centuries, and the area still remains an active harbour to this day.
Between 1825 and 1846 the Sovereign home was built by Charles Sovereign. The house was occupied from 1910 until 1915 by a famous author named Mazo de la Roche. In 1988 the Bronte Historical Society and the town of Oakville saved the home from being destroyed, however, the home today is not located at its original location, it is now located in Bronte Bluffs Park.
The house is owned by the Bronte Historical Society and is known to be a historical display centre for the local history of Bronte from the nineteenth century.
