Mill Lake is one of the more popular urban parks in the community of Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada. The park is well maintained, easily accessible and filled with various amenities. The main feature in the Abbotsford park is the lake in the centre of the park. For birdwatchers the lake attracts waterfowl to the area like ducks and geese... and the forest attracts songbirds to the area. Circling the lake is a paved 2 kilometre (1.2 mile) interpretive recreation path with views of Mount Baker. The pathway is paved and a section of the loop pathway is a floating boardwalk. The path is level , easy going and is suitable for all ages and fitness levels. The Mill Lake Park pathway connects to many features including a day use picnic area, shelter, playgrounds, sand volleyball courts, baseball fields, fitness track, an outdoor pool and spray park for children. Decorating the pathway are some information signs and sightseeing benches. Some of the activities enjoyed in the park include walking, jogging, birdwatching, fishing, picnicking and canoeing. Fishing in the lake is for trout and largemouth bass. There are no boat rentals in the park so one must bring their own non motorized watercraft like a canoe or row boat.

Welcome to our latest 4 legged guest Grizwold...

Clayburn Village is located at the foot of Sumas Mountain in Abbotsford, British Columbia and was designated for conservation as a Heritage Site in 1996. Clayburn was the first "company town" in British Columbia, a town built by the Clayburn Company to provide employee housing and services. It supported three stores, a bank, a school and a church. The discovery of high grade clay throughout Sumas Mountain and the demand for bricks brought Clayburn Village into being. The Village and brick plant were built more than a century ago, in 1905, by Charles Maclure, son of John Maclure, a former Royal Engineer and B.C. pioneer. Because of fall off in demand, the brickplant, after operating for a quarter century, was dismantled in 1931. Scaled back operations were moved to the sister "Kilgard" site located further up Sumas Mountain. Although only the foundations of the Clayburn plant now remain, one half of the original homes, a store, the church and the schoolhouse have survived and continue to showcase the village atmosphere. Most prestigious of the remaining buildings are the Clayburn Church built in 1912 and the Clayburn Schoolhouse built in 1907, both of which are on the register of Canada's historic sites. Clayburn offers its abundant visitors a unique view of an important part of Abbotsford's past. Through a century, Clayburn remains as a secluded little village, reminiscent of the turn-of-the-century English village atmosphere of the times, with brick buildings with neat gardens, surrounded by white picket fences. Samuel Maclure, brother of Charles, designed most of the brick buildings and was to become an architect of note designing many outstanding buildings in the Vancouver and Victoria area.
