The Dixon House and Barn was built between 1916 and 1918 by Bill Maxwell and Roy Hallack for Mr. and Mrs. Herbert C. Dixon. In about 1935 the Dixons’ sold the property to Mr. and Mrs. William Cumming, and in 1958 Catherine and John Vander Vegte purchased the farm from Mrs. Cumming. The Vander Vegtes’ renovated the barn, which had wooden aisles, gutters, and mangers, and poured the concrete. The Vander Vegte’s later moved to a condo, but kept the farm until they sold it to the Township of Langley in 2004. The Langley Heritage Society signed a lease with the Township of Langley for the Dixon House and Barn in 2008. |
