Historic Sites of Manitoba: Taylor House (353 Fifth Avenue SW, Minnedosa)

This two-storey stone house on Fifth Avenue in Minnedosa was constructed in 1894 in the Southern Ontario Gothic style by local stonemason Thomas Dawson Taylor who was responsible for many of the fine stone buildings in the town. Originally a farmhouse, Taylor and his eight children raised prize-winning cattle while living here.
