Millbridge & Millbridge Station

Millbridge originated as a small community along the Hastings Road to serve travellers. Due to its location next to the Jordan River, it also became a small mill town, with three hotels, stores, a church, and a schoolhouse. The school is now a private residence and the church still stands. Some new private homes have been built where the original structures once stood, but some stone foundations can still be seen.

Millbridge Station came into being when an extension to the Central Ontario Railway passed five km to the east of Millbridge. A flag stop station was soon built, later joined by a store, the Hogan's Hotel, and some residences. The railroad is now gone, but the hotel survives.

Millbridge is a few kilometers north of Bannockburn on Hwy 62, west on Millbridge Road. Millbridge Station is on the other side of Hwy 62, about 2 km east along Stony Settlement Road.
