Historic Sites of Manitoba: Ogilvie Grain Elevator / United Grain Growers Grain Elevator 2 (St. Claude, RM of Grey)

A wooden grain elevator in St. Claude, on the CPR Glenboro Subdivision in the Rural Municipality of Grey, was built in 1914 by Ogilvie Flour Mills. Sold to Manitoba Pool in 1959, it was traded to United Grain Growers the following year, becoming its second elevator at this site. Closed around 1991, the facility was later removed from the site.
