| Additional Information: | The outbuilding (possibly a granary) was constructed c.1900. It is rectangular in plan with a concrete-covered-stone foundation, clapboard walls, and a metal roof. The building is built within a rise so that the front elevation is a full two stories while the rear elevation reveals only one above-grade story. The front elevation faces east and is largely symmetrical in composition with sliding doors of board construction at the ground story and two small 4-pane windows at the upper level. Another small 4-pane window is located in the south elevation. The rear elevation contains a single sliding barn door. |
