Stone Barn (Brigus)

The structure, which is now a barn, was originally a house. Its previous use and form can be seen on the interior where the remnants of floorjoists and of roof framing indicate that the building was two-and-a-half storeys high with a gable roof. Its date of building and its history have been difficult to determine. It is possible that it is one of a group of stone buildings on the various properties of Charles Cozens which were sold when he went bankrupt in 1833. A date as early as 1820 has been suggested for the structure and that would seem possible. It is said that a Mr. Nuttall, who came out from England to build the Anglican Church, occupied the house sometime after 1850.
