Description
The Log Cabin, Rural School & St. David's Church is a Municipal Heritage Property within the Town of Porcupine Plain located at the intersection of Windsor Avenue and Elm Street. The property features three buildings, including two one-storey, wood-frame buildings and a one-storey log building. The buildings were constructed between 1920 and 1942 and moved onto this 0.7 hectare lot between 1976 and 1982.
Valeur patrimoniale
The heritage value of the Log Cabin, Rural School & St. David's Church lies in its association with the early settlement of the Porcupine Plain district. Typical of 1920s settlements, the buildings in the area were constructed out of trees from the large forested area that surrounded the growing agricultural community. In Porcupine Plain, like many other communities, early construction efforts focused on building residences, churches and schools. As such, examples of these building types were moved to the site between 1976 and 1982 in order to help interpret the early pioneer period for the local museum.
