Charles Engle built the gambrel-roofed barn adjacent to the house in 1909, as well as the milk barn, grainery and machine outbuildings. In 1916, Engle constructed the large stone gate posts using woven wire fencing. He also constructed the cement sewage trough running from the house into the field. A new roof was put on in 1950.
