Notes
  • Significance: The tractor shed/combine barn is an example of an early-twentieth century agricultural outbuilding that contributed to the operation of a large farm in the region. With changes in agricultural practices, older tractor sheds are becoming rare as they are being replaced by more modern facilities or left to deteriorate. Modern development is also contributing to the disappearance of older agricultural outbuildings. As this development takes over agricultural lands, existing agricultural outbuildings are quickly disappearing.
