Constructed by 1810 and named for its original owner; placed on National Register of Historic Places in 2003. Its one-story timber-framed English bard form is one of the finest examples of this style and of barn craftmanship. Ichabod Higgins's family moved to MDI from Cape Cod in 1778 to settle in the small Island community of Somesville. It wasn't until the early 1800's that this ridge of land outside the village was established as an agricultural area. The barn has been in continuous use since its construction. [show more]
