A small sheep barn was proposed in Ottsville, Pennsylvania, Bucks County. The property has a number of 18th century stone homes and barns and the Owners wanted a sheep barn that compliments the surroundings and is in keeping with the style and character of the setting. An eighteenth century-style barn, with a cantilevered-overhang--a detail found in early German and Swiss barns was designed for the site.Care was taken with the placement and look of the new structure so it would look as if it had always been part of the surroundings. The Owners took time over the years to stockpile local red stone to match the surrounding buildings and contacted local artisans who work in the style of local Bucks county vernacular architecture.
