d. Horse Barn (OV-06.06) 



This barn is probably more than a century old. It is a common 28' x 36' 

 wood frame barn with gable roof and shed side gallery, random-width vertical 

 wood siding, and a corrugated metal roof which covers the older wood shingles. 

 Inside it has four stalls for horses and a small hayloft. The barn, with mudsill 

 foundation, is situated on the bank of a small creek which is subject to erosion; 

 at this writing the northeast corner post is dangling over the creekbed although 

 the roofline shows no sign of serious failure. Because of this situation, the barn 

 is considered to be in poor condition and will require foundation work and 

 streambank restoration. This building has excellent historic integrity. 



e. Carriage Shed (OV-06.02) 



This century-old structure is unique to the Olema Valley ranches. 

 Basically a 20' x 32' shed-roofed structure on mud sills with three open stalls, 

 the upper portion has a two-room living quarters once used by a hired hand. It 

 has random-width vertical board siding and a wooden stairway on the west side 

 leading to the upper rooms. The older shingle roof is covered with corrugated 

 metal roofing. The east wall is failing. The building is in fair condition. Minor 

 alterations have not affected the historic integrity of this building. 



f. Dairy House (OV-06.08) 



The original dairy house, where butter was made and, later, cream was 

 separated, may have been built as early as 1870. It is wood frame double-wall 

 construction, with a gable roof covered by corrugated metal. An opening on the 

 south side is plastered over. It has shiplap and horizontal drop siding on the 

 exterior (parts of the north side are covered with plywood, some shiplap is 

 missing) and lath-and-plaster on the interior. The building has a concrete floor, 

 probably added after the turn of the century. It has a corrugated metal roof. It 

 is in fair condition with a number of repairs needed. Minor alterations have not 

 impaired the historic integrity of this building.
