Dame Farm's shingle clad gambrel roof barn ("B") was built in 1910 by the Dames with the aid of local carpenters. The building's heavy chestnut wood frame was fashioned from lumber cut on the farm. Extending from the west end of the barn is a cow shed and an ice house and storage shed. Beside the cow shed stand two silos ("C", erected 1925).
