Description du lieu patrimonial
The John Quinton Limited Shop is a combination of a wooden, two- storey Biscuit Box house and a wooden, two storey steep gable house. Located in Red Cliffe, NL, the designation is confined to the footprint of the building.
Valeur patrimoniale
The John Quinton Limited Shop has been designated a Registered Heritage Structure because it has aesthetic value.
The John Quinton Limited Shop is aesthetically valuable because it is a good example of the reuse of a building for purposes other than which it was constructed. Originally a steep gable roofed residence, a biscuit box like addition was added to the front facade when the structure was used as a shop. This recycling of buildings was a common trait in outport communities where building materials were not always easily assessable.
