Located at 12054 Ridge Rd. in Oak Orchard on-the-Lake, this gambrel roofed barn is unique in that it is constructed half of cobblestones and half of wood. Ridge Rd ( Rte 104 ) is famous for its many cobblestone buildings and homes. Close examination of the building suggests that it was originally a wholely cobblestone structure and the wooden half was added as an expansion although it is covered by a single contiguous roof. Note the distinctly different styles in the doors of the two halves.
