When I first hit this destination, I was immediately confused what I was suppose to take a picture of. I did capture Capt Timouthy Ruggles house (not posted). There was this woman walking down the street, to which I approached her. She pointed out where the marker was for the barracks, telling me she wished her husband was here to give me the lowdown on the history of the barracks.
