I am not a huge fan out of making DB locations out of barns, but this one is neat in that it is hidden on a densely forested lot along Port Robinson's main strip. It is surrounded by thick brush and cannot even be seen from satellite in some images. The barn is situated in a ravine, with easy access into the basement from behind. A metal slide leading from the main floor to the basement is the only way of getting up to road level, as there are no stairs remaining. Large doors that would have opened onto the street and old signs inside indicate that there may have been a commercial purpose in here at one time.

The barn shows up in 1934 aerial photos of the area, but no information could be found pertaining to the history or owner.
