Otho Trundle’s barn, thought to have been built around 1830, will turn 200 in a few years. It’s believed that Civil War soldiers spent time resting here when the Confederate Army passed right by on their Maryland Campaign of 1862. Today, the barn is not in great shape – in fact, its roof collapsed as a result of weather in mid August. In this presentation, Kenny Sholes – board member of the Historic Medley District and creator of Historic Ag Reserve Properties – will talk about the history of the barn and ongoing efforts to preserve and stabilize the structure.
