Notes:
Building is organized around a primary gabled space that provides standing height across the full width. A single (to the east) and double (to the west) secondary spaces flank the primary space. Standing height is restricted to near the center of these spaces. A tertiary space is located along the south elevation, oriented east-west. Interior window openings connect the tertiary space and double banked secondary spaces. The tertiary space stands the tallest and could have programmatically been the primary space. The primary space has been identified due to the presence of a door opening. The tertiary space is now without two walls and could have been the proper entry had they survived.
Large boulders are embed in the ground throughout the five spaces. There does not appear to have been a permanent floor.
Walls are board-formed concrete with locations that appear to have employed corrugated metal as the formwork. Aggregate size ranges from pebbles to substantially large rocks. There is exposed rebar that may have tied into a wood-framed roof structure.
Does not appear to be associated with a current working farm. One abandoned tractor onsite. Signage on gate indicated fishing was not allowed.
