I took the opportunity today to go with a group sponsored by the Adams County Historical Assoc. to the site of the Herbst house and barn, which is on private property.
First, a locator map.
Andrew Dalton of the ACHS giving the tour with the barn and orchard in the background.
This is the north end of the rebuilt barn, which was constructed in 1872 on the foundation of the old barn.
This is the south wall.
This is the driveway leading to both the house and barn. The original house no longer exists. You can see Old Mill Rd. at the end of the driveway, which today, crosses Willoughby's Run (bridge can be seen to the right). See the map above.
This is the barn as seen from the Old Mill Rd. bridge. During the battle, this bridge did not exist.
