From the marker:
This SEE ROCK CITY Barn was built by Gene Tibbs on his Dalton, Georgia property in 1948. Its high-arching, self-supporting roof is a unique design giving the interior a cathedral-like look. In the 1960's, Rock City's Clark Byers painted the barn to look like a See Rock City birdhouse. Whitfield County declared it a historic site in 1980. But in 2002, the future of the barn was in danger due to an upcoming development on the property. Thanks to a cooperative effort between Rock City and members of Dalton's Central Church of Christ, the barn was disassembled, moved and reassembled on Blowing Springs Farm, her below Rock City's Lover's Leap.
