The Rockwood Registry Office, constructed in Stonewall in 1882, was the first municipal building in the Rural Municipality of Rockwood. From 1914 to 1939, it was a passenger station for a trolley line into Winnipeg operated by the Winnipeg, Selkirk and Lake Winnipeg Railway Company. Now a private residence, it became a municipally-designated historic site in 2012.
