Historic Sites of Manitoba: Paterson Grain Elevator (Somerset, Municipality of Lorne)A 38,000-bushel wooden elevator in Somerset, in what is now the Municipality of Lorne, was built in 1944 and operated on the CNR Carman Subdivision by Paterson Grain. Three annexes were built beside it, a 26,000-bushel crib annex in 1954, a 42,000-bushel crib annex in 1960, and a 15,000-bushel steel annex in 1969. All were present in the mid-1970s at the time of the Grain Handling and Transportation Commission. The elevator was demolished in 2002.
