Fairfields Heritage House—the former Bell family homestead— is an impressive 19th century Gothic Revival farmhouse. The recreated historic rooms of this designated heritage property tell the story of the many generations of the Bell family who made their mark on the home, property, and community over the 175 years they lived at the site. The collection of 3,000 artefacts, including furniture, personal belongings, and artwork reflect the family’s shifting priorities from farming to social issues to politics.
The museum tells the story of almost 200 years of rich, local history and the people who actively helped shape the evolution of the area. Originally built on 660 acres of farmland, the property still features lawns, gardens, a gazebo, and statuesque trees. It is the perfect destination for picnics, exploring, and family-friendly activities.
