This unique barn with it’s central silo, is the last known example of a polygonal (multi-sided) barn in British Columbia. It was built in 1924 and re-roofed in 2001 by the Friends Of Fintry, with help from the Canadian Millennium Partnership Program. The original shingles lasted 77 years. The barn itself is still in excellent shape. / After a disappointment with Hereford beef cattle, Dunn-waters turned to Ayrshires, the Scottish dairy cattle he remembered from his boyhood. Since he’d have only the finest animals, they had to have the best accommodation- this architect designed octagonal barn. / His herd won numerous awards for quality and quantity of milk. Producing cows were kept at the High Farm, part of the estate back in the hills where he also grew feed for his animals. Dunn-Waters herd supplied dairy products for his employees, neighbors and the elegant dining rooms on the CPR stern wheelers that regularly pulled in to the packing house wharf. After Dunn-Waters death, the Fairbridge farm students continued to raise and milk Ayrshires until their school closed in 1948. / On a side note there were numerous signs posted warning of bears in the area and although I did come across some fresh bear scat and paws prints I did not come in contact with this beast thankfully , although I do always carry bear spray with me just in case.

Shot with Nikon L18 as is from camera shot in Templeton MA. / / Copyright 2008 Rebecca Bryson. All Rights Reserved. Unauthorized use prohibited. My work does NOT belong to the public domain. It may not be used in any way, shape or form without my prior written permission These were popularized by Orson S. Fowler in his book, The Octagon, A Home for All (1848). Fowler believed Ocatagons would provide more floor space and better light and ventilation. A few thousand were built in the United States, primarily in the Northeast and Midwest in the 1850s and 60s, but only several hundred survive today. I believe that there are 8 in Massachusetts. I do know there are several in Rhode Island. There is one in Gardner MA.

It was moved from the Miller Farm in Rockingham, Virginia to The Frontier Culture Musuim. The lower level, which is what you see is where space was provided for the cattle and horse stables. The upper part, which I couldn’t get around to from where I was taking the photo, is for the hay and equipment. I thought it was a cool looking barn and so different from what we normally see. I got my info from the Frontier Culture Musuim located in Staunton, Va. Thank you for looking.
