Big Bruce - A giant Hereford Steer that resides in the heart of Bruce County's famous cattle country.

Towering at height of 15' he was the brain-child of Harvey L Davis, a local beef farmer and politician.

During his 'mobile' days he visited fall fairs, attended Christmas parades and plowing matches.

West Montrose Covered Bridge Commemorative Millennium Capsule
Encrypted 01/01/2000 - Commemorative Millennium Capsule Open 01/01/2100 This structure, the only remaining covered bridge in Ontario, was designed by John Bear in 1880, on the authority of Woolwich Township Council, to replace an earlier bridge over the Grand River. Built a year later by John and his brother Benjamin, the 198-foot bridge was covered to protect the wooden flooring and frame against the elements. Known locally as the Kissing Bridge, it later came under the jurisdiction of Waterloo County. In 1937 the province assumed responsibility for the Guelph-Elmira Road, including the West Montrose Bridge, and its floor and sub-structure were subsequently rebuilt and reinforced.
