Cottonwood Ranch, Historic farmhouse and museum in Studley, United States.
The stone-built Cottonwood Ranch features traditional vernacular architecture with a single floor layout reflecting rural Kansas construction methods from 1879.
John Fenton Pratt established the ranch in 1885, starting with a one-room stone house that later expanded due to harsh winter conditions.
The property exhibits strong Yorkshire architectural influences through its construction techniques and design elements, representing English settlement patterns in Kansas.
Visitors can explore multiple preserved structures including the main house, sod stable, corral, and outbuildings while learning about early farming practices.
A natural spring on the property led to the construction of a storage cistern, which provided water for the ranch's operations.
