Rockwood is the main urban area in the Township of Guelph/Eramosa in Wellington County, Ontario. A rapidly-growing community of approximately 3,500 people, it is located on Highway #7between Acton and the City of Guelph. The Eramosa River runs through the centre of town and is the reason for Rockwood's existence - having been the source of power for several mills that were the economic engine that spawned the original settlement.
