West Brant Presbyterian Church, 1869
First stone Church in Bruce County, (linked with North Brant (Malcolm). Built partly on land severed from the farm of Rev. John Eckford who was grandfather of John McCrae, poet of "In Flanders Fields" who spent many summers at the farm. In 1878, the link with North Brant was dissolved and West Brant church was joined with Pinkerton. Membership of West Brant Church dwindled in the early 1900s and the church was closed in 1909. It served as a Mortuary for Douglas Hill Cemetery for 20-30 years, until 1980. New owners plan to maintain stone walls and windows, renovate the interior as a country retreat. In 2017 septic tank, driveway and rail fence were installed.
