Field Notes

Circa 1900 barn, built with post & beam, cedar pegs, timber and foundation stones were used from the original barn to build this barn. The farm house was built circa 1750. The stone foundation shown is the remains of a water powered scythe factory. The stream and partial water pond still run next to this foundation.
