The additional outbuildings include a c. 1950 metal silo (AHI# 230062) with a rounded standing seam metal roof, located south of the barns; a c. 1950 gable roof metal shed (AHI# 230063) located south of the silo; and a c.1980 metal pole barn with a retracting garage door on the east elevation, located southwest of the house.

2015- "The Boning House is located on the west side of STH 69, approximately one-half-mile south of the community of Paoli. The property contains a residence [AHI#4433], smokehouse [230060], and the ruins of a privy to the north, as well as a group of agricultural buildings to the south, separated from the house by a gravel driveway lined with mature deciduous trees. Farm buildings consist of two barns [230060, 230061], a modern silo, grain bin [230062], and two other outbuildings [incl. 230063], all of which are grouped along the west side of the road. The Sugar River runs through the property at the rear of the building complex, and the house is surrounded by mature evergreen and deciduous trees and a grassy lawn. A landscaped garden is located north of the house. STH 69 runs north-south and bisects the farm parcel, and mature oak and maple trees line the opposite side of the highway for approximately 700 feet, separating the house and farm buildings from the associated agricultural lands east of the road. Many of these trees are over 4 feet in diameter and were planted by original homesteader Henry Boning.

6. Equipment shed Noncontributing Building [230063]
A c. 1950 equipment shed is located south of the barn complex. The walls and gable roof are covered with corrugated metal and a small ventilator is mounted on the ridgeline. A pair of sliding doors are located on the east gable end and the south elevation has three four-light fixed windows."
