Notes

Built in 1921 as a 40’ x 80’ nine stall horse barn with a large tack room, drive through scale house (in floor scale with beam scale), and full hayloft with chutes to the stalls. The stalls are served by a track system to move manure from inside to outside the barn using a galvanized cart riding the rail. The foundation is poured concrete and the barn has a gambrel roof. The upper story windows on both gables exhibit wood trim in the design of a sunburst that is the signature of Charles H, Katz who built the barn. The barn also has interesting diamond shaped windows for each stall and the original white arches on the barn doors. The “Girl on the swing in the hayloft” was added by Scott Hagan an artist from Ohio.
