Brookfield is a Canadian community located on the northeast coast of the island of Newfoundland in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
Situated near Wesleyville, it was formerly named Norton's Cove but was changed in 1879 when Captain Abram Kean and his family of nine moved there and renamed it Brookfield.[1] Norton's Cove was settled after 1874 and by 1891 had a population of 147 people; in 1911, the population had grown to 372.[2] The community has since been incorporated into the new municipality of New-Wes-Valley, along with several other former villages.
