RED BARN
MILK HOUSE 
OUTHOUSE

The Red Barn was moved to the property from across the street about 60 years ago. 
The Historical Society cleaned it out last year and had a new roof put on along with repairs to the shingle siding. It was used by the Strickland family for their cattle.

The Milk House has been part of the property for at least 60 years. 
The building has recently received a new coat of white paint and repairs are being 
done to the buliding at this time.

The Outhouse has a heart detail on the side, 
to let in a bit of light and to work as a vent. 
One of the few examples left in the county but thankfully no longer in use!
