Green Street, corner Larkin, Peace Dale Manufacturing
Company Barn 1866: - -
This shingled bank barn has shed-roofed appendages. There
is also a board-and-batten shed on the site. Rural factories
like Peace Dale’s woolen mills generally depended on
transportation provided by horse-drawn freight wagons to bring in
raw materials and take out finished goods. The railroad did not
come to Peace Dale until 1876, and even after that date there was
a need for horses and wagons. The barn served this adjunct to
industrial production. C
