This property was part of one of Morgan Hill's oldest homesteads and later a successful walnut orchard and dairy farm. Now it is part of the Coyote Creek County Park, and the existing buildings are being preserved but not restored. This barn is along the main walking path near the southern end of the park. It is not fenced off, so you can walk through it, but there is nothing inside except support poles.
