History |
This is a leaflet of the Bradley Museum, which is located in Clarkson, Mississauga, Ontario. Mississauga's first museum, Bradley Museum, celebrated its 40th anniversary in June 2007. Opened as a Centennial Project in 1967, this site has continued to grow and evolve over the decades and is still undergoing developmental changes today. Bradley Museum is situated on a 2 1/4 acre site in the Clarkson area of Mississauga. Presently there are six structures on the Bradley site: three are historic houses and three are reproduction outbuildings (a barn, a drive shed, and an outhouse). The site was named for Bradley House, the original structure that was moved to the site. It is now owned and operated by the City of Mississauga and continues to educate, entertain and grow.
