| Additional Information: | This one-story rectangular building was probably constructed as a shed with a portion used for poultry. It has a gable roof and its walls are clad with vertical wood boards. In the peaks of both gables are small openings, and there are two large window openings flanking the door in the south elevation. The larger openings may have provided solar heat and light for raising poultry. |
