NOTES
Additional Information:This building stands on the historic C.E. Meredith farmstead. Only the house on this property was previously inventoried in the AHI (227236). County records indicate the farm building (machine shed or garage) was built in 1900. This side-gable building has an asphalt shingle roof. Along the east façade, it appears the sliding doors have been infilled with windows and smaller doors.
This building is not individually eligible. The farmstead as a whole is also recommended not eligible for listing in the NRHP.
