Barn Beauty

Final touches to the first coat of paint, mid-July 2025. Restoration is almost complete! The first coat of paint is drying at the Old Yale Barn, built more than 100 years ago.  LHS president Fred Pepin led the project that included major repairs by local contractors. It includes a new roof, new siding, new beams where needed, all reinforced by plywood, a  new set of stairs and cables strung above the second floor. Have a look at this former dairy barn the next time you’re near Old Yale Park in Murrayville. The project was funded by the Langley Heritage Society and the barn will be operated by Township of Langley Parks. The resident barn owls remained throughout the restoration! Before photos below.

CN Station Roofing Project

The 1915 heritage CNR Station managed by the Langley Heritage Society is due for a new roof. Work is now underway to help preserve this building for many more years. Thanks to Station Manager Helen Williams for these images.     Some of the new rubberized shingles are visible on the upper peak. Coming along! Above: The roof is mostly finished. The shingles are a rubberized and made from 95% recycled materials, including recycled tires. We have also added new colour-matched eavestroughs to the renewed roof.
