In our recent 3 day short trip to Brockville, we took a quick rest stop at Brighton, Ontario. While the driver got a few minutes of nap, I walked around the main street and found interesting street art.

“Lest We Forget” on a utility box.

This big mural could be in honor of Mark Kellogg, a journalist born in Brighton who was considered the first Associated Press correspondent to die in line of duty. 

Brighton’s Community Mural – for Canada 150’s celebration. Showing Brighton’s pride – the lighthouse, apples, the railway museum, the park boardwalk and a historical building. 

Lovely mural as a reminder that Brighton is apple country and celebrates its annual AppleFest over the last full weekend of September. 

Perfect timing! The Brighton Post Office showing the time at 12 noon. 

It was a well spent hour at Brighton, Ontario. If you have a day to spend in Brighton, highly recommended is Presquil’e Provincial Park with picnic areas along the coast, a boardwalk and a lighthouse. For more suggestions on what to do in Brighton, click here.
