Belfry School


The Belfry school is a one room schoolhouse, built in 1891. The building was moved to its present location (on Manitoba route 445, west of Melita and north of Elva) in 1896. It operated until 1963.

      Actually, Steve, I was alluding to the old "bats in his belfry" expression. ;-)
