Bardeen-Culver Barn.
For the discriminating architectural antiquarian, the Bardeen-Culver Barn 1715, one of only five pre 1720 barns known to exist in Eastern Massachusetts, incorporates many of the early framing and joinery methods of the 17th century. The barn, of the English type, is of particular interest since several of its posts were felled before 1700. Built as 30' x 40' structure, only four bents of the original five bents remain. The building has been dismantled and is in storage. A full set of architect developed drawings, field notes, dendrochronology documentation; photos and cost estimate for rehabilitation accompany the barn.

HISTORIC HOUSE OR BARN NEEDS RESCUE? A dedicated preservationist, William Gould Architectural Preservation, LLC has long worked to save historic houses and barns endangered by change and development. Unfortunately, such structures are being condemned at a faster rate than we can find homes for them. Consequently, while we remain very interested to hear about your antique building, we must be selective so that we can continue to effectively advocate for the buildings that we have. Our online endangered house and barn form will help you to tell us what we need to know in order to advise you on the most effective course of action to save your important historic structure.
