Old stone house


This old stone house was built shortly after John and his wife homesteaded on the quarter section in 1885 - after moving to southwestern Manitoba from the Hebrides, just off the west coast of Scotland. The house was also home to the couple's 3 children, John, Lochie and Mary. Unfortunately, I don't know the exact year the house was built. If there was a datestone - usually above the front door, it's gone now. The house was in very poor condition when the picture was taken in April of 2020.
