Brockton is a former village, and now a neighbourhood in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The neighbourhood comprises part of the historic Village of Brockton, which was annexed by the City of Toronto in 1884.
The Village of Brockton was incorporated in 1880 and organized in 1881, with its boundaries extending from Bloor Street in the north to the railway tracks and a line between Wright Avenue and Fern Avenue to the south. The village stretched from Dufferin Street in the east to Sunnyside Avenue in the west. However not all the area became identified as Brockton neighbourhood. The section to the west of Lansdowne has become better known as Roncesvalles.
