Continue walking along the shoulder of York Road past 1744 York Road

You're now passing Silver Springs Farm at 1755 York Road, a beautiful stone farmhouse built in 1819 on a property once owned by James Secord Senior, who was the father-in-law of Laura Secord. This impressive property was immaculately restored between 2004 and 2009 by retired engineer Bob Watson, including the re-establishment of Carolinian forest. The property was later sold to another owner who removed the forest and replaced it with vineyards for wine grape production.
