- Cover photo description:
- Elder Louis kept teams of carriage horses in the barn, which was painted pink. The slate roof likely dates from 1876, when a number of buildings at the village were re-roofed in slate. Note the large bay doors on the east and west sides. Unusual for New England barns of the time, these doors allowed for the Shaker brethren to enter with hay wagons, unload the hay into the loft above, and then exit without having to back out—important efficiency and safety considerations when working with teams of powerful, yet sometimes unpredictable draft horses and oxen.
