Design
The barn was built by DeVern Bates for James Clifford Young after his previous barn burned down in 1914. Bates was familiar with circular barn design having designed one for the University of Illinois in 1910. It is a two-story structure, with a large square entrance bay, and a diameter of 80 feet (24 m). It is covered by a conical, two slope gambrel roof topped with a circular cupola venting the loft and central silo. DeVern Bates also built the nearby Bates Round Barn.[2][3]
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1]

gollark: ```Wants: H: low-time Shimmer W: Free! Any 1 cb hatchling/non-messy red or purple hatchling=Auto!```Ah, very free right there!
gollark: Throw in some cheese and onion crisps and it's a deal.
gollark: Hmm... got offers of a CB silver and CB copper, random hatchlings (CB, probably), and an ER CB copper...
gollark: I've got a bunch with 10-20 minutes to go (3) so they're staying unfogged but ready to be viewed now.
