The stone house is a reconstruction of the original house built in 1835 by the founder of Mcnab Township, the controversial and colorful Archibald 13th Laird of McNab (c.1781-1860). The church house is an original log structure which is dating back to 1868. It was moved here from the White Lake village in 1978. It was known there as a "Penny Reading House". The log school house was moved here in 1978 from German Settlement (now called Clay Valley). Each building contains a lot of artifacts which belong to the time when first European settlers started developing the Ottawa Valley.
