5 L+ j2 d# E5 p2 w9 w# uThe late Bob Cain was the proud builder of a series of glass bottle structures located on his farm just north of Treherne. Bob and his wife Dora built their first structure, a one room house made of approximately 4000 glass bottles, in 1982 with the help of Fred Harp. The Cains got the idea after seeing similar creations in Redlake, Ontario. It took them nearly three years, beginning in 1979, to collect enough bottles to begin construction, but with Dora cleaning and peeling labels, the men were soon at work. After two months of dedicated labor, the first glass house was complete. Inside this house, collections of antiques and foreign bottles were displayed.

This structure took nearly 3 months to build, but when it was complete, they were able to furnish it properly. Bob made a pulpit, an organ was donated from the Anglican church in McGregor, a few stained glass windows were donated from the Anglican Church in Cypress River, and from a house in Winnipeg, Bob found some old church pews that he cut in half and added to his collection. In the years to follow, three weddings took place in this church, along with numerous services from time to time.

So in 1987, they put up a well using approximately 500 bottles and a bathroom using over 1000 bottles. Bob and Dora's son, Joe Cain, was a plumber, so he was able to install a flushing toilet and sink with running water. The facilities were appreciated by their visitors!

In 2007 these small buildings were moved into Treherne to a corner park at Railway Avenue and Alexander Street. It's been over 20 years now since the building of these unique structures began and tourists are still coming from far and wide to see these amazing attractions.公仔箱論壇; E" w/ c' j) H) F! K
