Excerpt: Bronnoya is an island in the western section of Oslofjord (Vestfjorden), within the borders of the municipality of Asker. The island is just beyond the upscale suburban construction of Nesoya, reachable across the Vendelsund sound by cable ferry during the summer and a pontoon bridge in winter. It is among the largest islands in the Vestfjorden archipelago and is surrounded by islands: To the east is Ostoya in Baerum, to the south is Langara (Asker) and to the west the small islands with descriptive names such as Katterompa (Cat's Rear End), Torbjornsoy, Furuholmen (Pine Island), and Spannslokket (Pail Lid). The island's geology was formed in the Cambrian era and is rich with limestone. The island is recorded by name in sea charts from the early 16th century. ..
