Description: Mayner House, 185 Townsend Street, Lunenburg, NS. Mayner House is considered to have heritage value due to its age, local historical significance and as a good example of nineteenth century vernacular architecture. The house has many typical Lunenburg features, such as a Lunenburg 'bump' dormer and bracketting detail, and it has maintained nearly all its original architectural features. The clapboard siding, steep gable roof, front facade frontispiece and symmetry of the building are characteristic of Lunenburg nineteenth century architecture. The property was built in 1883, and like many Lunenburg Old Town homes, it stayed in the original family for many years. It was sold to Captain Aubrey Oxner in 1925, and remained in the Oxner family for many years.
