Buttercup

Located in the historical district of The Highlands in Edmonton is the Buttercup Farmhouse.
Built in 1912 by developers McGrath and Holgate this house got its name from the family cow that was kept in a barn located behind the house.
I have decided to do a series this week of some of the historical homes in Edmonton
