Tillson Farm Barn

It is a single-story rectangular wood-frame structure with a gabled roof, weatherboard exterior, and granite foundation.

The front facade faces south (away from the road, from which it is screened by trees), and is dominated by a large tracked board-and-batten door with a transom window above.

There are two sash windows above the door, with hooded moulding and cornices, and there is a decorative truss in the gable above, whose vertical member extends above the roof to form a sort of finial.

The interior of barn, although utilitarian in nature, features turned posts and tongue-and-groove paneling in some of the stalls.

Most of Maine's 19th-century agricultural barns have basically vernacular appearances, making this one particularly unusual for its elaborate decorative treatment.
