Wisconsin, Columbia County
The primary outbuildings on the farm in Columbia County were two large barns, a silo, and a corn crib. The rectangle gable-end barn was probably the first barn built on the farm. The lower-level fieldstone wall is suggestive of its primacy. The gambrel roof, or Wisconsin barn, and the adjacent silo is indicative of a dairy operation. The corn crib could be filled from opening on the roof.
