Red Barn

This simple building was originally a grain storage shed located on the Orient wharf. In 1890, Thomas Young, a dock agent, moved it to the rear of his property on Village Lane and used it as a seine house for the repairing and storing of fish nets. It was later moved to the OHS grounds where today the building is open as a penny candy store on special occasions and used to store horse drawn vehicles.
