  • Note: 1874; 200 Main St., Brighton, Northumberland Co., Ontario; "Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest: The 'Fife House's' cultural heritage value lies in it being one of Brighton's finest examples of Italianate architecture. It is L-shaped and typical of the style, it features a hipped roof with a prominent overhang and wooden soffrts and paired, decorative brackets. The house was built in 1874 by Dr. Amos E. Fife, who ran his medical practice from there until his death in 1885, when it passed to his wife, Sarah Fife. The Fife House's associative heritage value also rests in the role that Dr. Fife played in Brighton. He was the first President of The Mechanic's Institute that, along with Library Association, was formed in 1869 to replace the earlier Brighton Library Club. Further, in later years the house was the residence of another Brighton general practitioner, Dr. Robert J. Wade; and in still later years it served as a nursing home." from Notice of Intention to Designate, Nov 1 2010, Municipality of Brighton, downloaded from Ontario Heritage Trust (https://www.heritagetrust.on.ca/en/index.php/oha/details/file?id=1165&id=1165)
