Image of corduroy road, Brandon House.
Notes
[Brandon SE includes communities south of Trans-Canada #1 highway and east of PTH #10.] [Caption on the image itself reads: "Logs in the more-than-century old corduroy road near the first Brandon House"]. [Additional information on the image itself reads: "In the Souris-mouth district the banks of the Assiniboine are rough and pretty much untilled, so the sites are unusually well preserved. The site of the first Brandon House is very well marked. Thirty-one years of even interrupted occupation should leave some physical impression. It is in an open space of two or three acres in wooded country."]
"Maley House was constructed in 1912 by Henry F. Maley, founder and owner of the Brandon Brewery Company. The house was purchased by Dr. McDiarmid, whose family occupied the home for the next sixty years. It is currently used as a bed and breakfast establishment" (Manitoba Culture, Heritage, Tourism and Sport). Maley House is listed as Manitoba Municipal Heritage Site No. 80.
