Township of Brock

Township of Brock Community Profile

Nestled on the east shores of Lake Simcoe and the Trent-Severn Waterway—and only a one-hour drive from Toronto—the Township of Brock offers beautiful rolling countryside, shoreline parks, numerous hamlets, and three distinct villages. While agriculture is one of Brock's most prominent industries, a full range of commercial and industrial businesses are located within the urban areas of Beaverton, Cannington, and Sunderland.
