Rosedale Plantation Barn
Rosedale Plantation Barn, Historic log barn in Clark County, Arkansas.
The thirty by fifty feet wooden structure features hand-hewn logs connected through half-dovetail notching and secured with oak pegs on sandstone piers.
Built around 1860 as part of Rosedale Plantation by Joseph Allen Whitaker, the barn remains the final structure from an estate that included a main house and slave quarters.
The construction methods and materials showcase the agricultural building techniques of mid-nineteenth century Arkansas through precise log joinery and structural design.
Located at 879 Old Military Road in Arkadelphia, the structure was moved from its original position in 2002 to protect it from destruction.
The barn stands as the largest known log structure of its kind in Arkansas, with fifty-foot side logs and a distinctive six-foot overhang created by extended top logs.
