Description
Down from the A. Bovet farmhouse about 3 or 4 parcels is the historical footprint of the R. Sprong house. Built circa 1890, abandoned in the late 1950's and allowed to slowly fall into itself, this site is the most intact. It also, unfortunately, is the hardest to investigate. Mother nature has shown her wrath on this site.

  Bingo.
But if one were to wonder into the bush at this point, they would fall into a cellar.

  I think the reason it's circled is because it is where the house once stood.

  When we were kids back in the 1960's we used to call that farmhouse the "Haunted House". It was still quite intact into the 70's and I think the city must of removed most of itin the 80's. I remember it was a creme colour but was really creepy with old apple trees on the property covered in moss. Down at the bottom of Elwell and a couple of hundred feet past Fareham was an old orchard where there was a bunch of Stock racing cars that had been abandoned. It was a wonderful place to grow up as a boy with Robert Burnaby Park and the surrounding George Derby lands to play in.
