History of Brant Hills
The name “Brant” honours First Nations chief Joseph Brant, who settled in Burlington in 1807. “Hills” reflects the Niagara Escarpment landscape that defines this neighbourhood. The first settlers here were of English and Irish descent, carving homesteads out of dense forest and rocky terrain.
A great place to explore this history is the Ireland House Museum on Guelph Line. This preserved homestead tells the story of Burlington’s early settlers and their pioneer lifestyle, offering a glimpse into the roots of Brant Hills.
