Saint Andrews, Manitoba — Canada’s Prairie Region (North America)
St. Andrew’s Rectory
Le Presbytère de St. Andrew’s. Construite dans les années 1852 à 1854 pour le ministre anglican William Cockran, cette vaste résidence en pierre calcaire est l’une des premières du genre dans la colonie de la Rivière Rouge. Elle s’harmonisait avec la structure massive de l’élise voisine. Comme plusiurs des maisons imposantes construites pour les officiers retraités de la Compagnie de la Baie d’Hudson, le presbytére rappelle les bâtiments importants de postes de la Compagnie et illustre bien l’architecture de la Rivière Rouge.
Erected 1984 by Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada.
