William Browning House 14

  
Community Markham
Year Constructed:  1845
Address: 140 Main Street North
Circa 1845, William Browning, a watch and clock-maker, built this Ontario Vernacular cottage with Regency features. During the first decades of the twentieth-century, the telegraph office and later the First World War Recruiting Office were housed here. Circa 1920, the building was sold to the Women's institute for use as a public library until 1967 when the Centennial Library was built north of Parkway Avenue.
