London Heritage Farm, History museum on Fraser River in Richmond, Canada.
London Heritage Farm is a history museum on a 4-acre property beside the Fraser River, featuring an 1880s farmhouse with original furnishings and objects inside. The site includes a restored barn, working gardens, and outbuildings that show how a rural household was organized and operated.
The property was founded in 1877 when two brothers arrived from Ontario and began establishing a farm on the site. The house was built and expanded over time to reflect the agricultural life of that generation.
The farmstead displays how a rural family organized their home and the objects they used for everyday tasks. Visitors can see how people dressed, cooked, and furnished their rooms during that period.
The grounds are open daily and free to walk around, while the house interior has limited visiting days during the warmer months. The site has uneven paths and natural terrain, so comfortable walking shoes are recommended for exploring the full property.
The farm maintains working beehives and chicken coops that visitors can watch during their visit, showing real agricultural practices from that era. These living animals demonstrate how families depended on bees for honey and chickens for food and eggs.
