It was designed and                                          built by Trafalgar pioneers with local materials. The house has a timber frame construction common for barns                                  but unique for a home. Jordan Munn founded the former hamlet of Munns corners and the home was likely                                      constructed by him. Jordan and his mother, Millicent (nee Post) operated the Munns Inn. The brick house was an                                      addition to the original timber frame section of the house. The timber frame section unfortunately was not                                  salvageable.   Information taken from a Town of Oakville August 2019 council report by Oakville Planning staff.            2
