This two-storey brick building on Main Street in Manitou was constructed in 1903 for hardware merchants Duncan Gunn and H. Nichol. Through the years, it has hosted a harness shop, funeral parlour, furniture store, and armoury during the Second World War. The second floor serves as residential space.
