| Additional Information: | This granary is part of the farm complex also found under AHI #0091159, #0091160 (house and barn with silo). This early twentieth century building consists of a central portion, which was a granary for storing oats, and two attached sheds on the sides. As seen on several agricultural buildings in the area, the boards sheathing the building are placed horizontally. The granary is located in the right of way of STH 136 and will probably be demolished. |
