2005 HISTORIC HOUSE AND BARN TOUR

5. Belles Bank Barn, disembark (Walnut Road). This well constructed Civil War era timber frame barn is unique in that it sports a cupola atop its slate roof. Acquired by the State Green Acres program, the property is managed by the NJ Department of Fish & Wldlife. The Knowlton Township Historic Commission is currently exploring possible adaptive re-use opportunities to preserve this barn. After the nearby farmstead on Delaware Lake was leased from the State - for use by an Heirloom Seed Company, the Historic Commission gained interest to begin seeking similar or compatible solutions to save the Belles Barn.
