Demonstration Farm House
44 Water Street
265.E.2 / 1915

The structure housed the manager of an agricultural demonstration facility established when George Lawrence, a Killarney pioneer, was Manitoba’s minister of agriculture. The large dwelling, with its prominent dormers and wide shady verandah, is a fine example of the typical four-square farmhouses built across southern Manitoba in the early 1900s. Closed in 1946, used as a Royal Canadian Mounted Police barracks, a private school and a museum, the house retains much of its exterior integrity and interior layout and character.

Designated Site
