The home located at 7 Burlington Street was formerly the Parsonage for Trinity Methodist Church and was built in 1857. At first church services were held at the 1856 church on the nearby Brocklebank farm. A new church building was built here in 1866, beside the parsonage. The congregation joined the United Church of Canada in 1925, becoming Trinity United Church. Located at 5 Burlington Street, the church served the Malton community until 1953, when a new church was opened on Airport Road. This building was sold and converted into a house. Next door, the old parsonage served as the residence for the minister, including longserving reverends Robert Boyd, Thomas Crompton and George Wood, amongst others. A new parsonage was built in 1947, and this building was sold and became a private home. The second storey of the former parsonage has been remodeled, replacing the original dormer and roof elevation.

A former church, converted to house, converted to bando, I seriously wonder how the inside got to the state it's in now.

I found this on the bus, and came back this time to check it out, the side door was open, and lo and behold, get inside, realize it's unexplorable, and leave. The side door is now boarded, did the neighbours see me? Maybe. It was probably a good thing I couldn't explore inside.
