Scarborough barn.

An unusual nineteenth century hip roofed barn measuring 30’ 6” x 30’ 6” with 16’ from sill to eaves has a lantern cupola and finial. The frame and wide board sheathing are crosscut sawn softwood. The original plank flooring remains on both the first and second floors. The second floor is a clear span while the first floor has four posts. Original sash and glass remain not only in the window frames but in the cupola as well. The symmetry and grace of the building belie the building’s intended utilitarian purpose.

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.
