Field Notes

Old tobacco shed used up until the 1950's for tobacco and for light farming since then. New roof in 2004 and new front door added in 2006. Side wood is in excellent shape. No journals found for anything prior to 1930 but it is rumored that the original section of barn dates to before the farm house which was built in 1870. The addition was added in 1930's. Size is approximately 90 by 25.
