<br /> 1 C. OUTBUILDINGS and ACCESSORY STRUCTURES
<br /> 2 Until the mid-twentieth century, most rural properties consisted of a main dwelling
<br /> 3 unit surrounded by specialized outbuildings for domestic or agricultural tasks.
<br /> 4 Separate kitchen structures, barns, storage sheds, dairies, smokehouses, etc. are
<br /> 5 vital to our understanding the historic and architectural context of a designated
<br /> 6 landmark. Routine maintenance, traditional repair, and selective replacement of
<br /> � deteriorated or missing features for contributing outbuildings and accessory
<br /> g structures should follow the same guidelines as those for main landmark buildings.

<br /> i7 In most cases new accessory structures should be placed on the site in their
<br /> 18 traditional locations, particularly if the new building is a reproduction of the original
<br /> 19 structure or is very similar in size and appearance to the original structure. New
<br /> 2o buildings that are not reproductions should be visually compatible with the existing
<br /> 21 building complex, particularly from a distance. New buildings should never detract
<br /> 22 from or compete with a contributing house or outbuilding complex due to size or
<br /> 23 design.
<br /> 24 Special care should be used when positioning a new outbuilding near a significant
<br /> 25 outbuilding or building cluster. If a new agricultural building must look significantly
<br /> 26 different from surrounding structures—in terms of color, construction technique or
<br /> 2� material, size or scale in order to function, it may be more appropriate to locate the
<br /> 28 new structure away from the existing buildings to maintain the integrity of the
<br /> 29 original building complex. (See also Standards for Introducing Buildings to a
<br /> 3o Landmark Property.)

<br /> 32 DESIGN STANDARDS for Outbuildings and Accessory Structures
<br /> 33
<br /> 34 II-C-1. Retain and preserve outbuildings and accessory structures such as smokehouses,
<br /> 35 dairies, washhouses, barns, storage bins, and sheds that contribute to the historic
<br /> 36 character of the site.
<br /> 37
<br /> 38 11-C-2. Maintain and protect historic outbuildings and accessory structures and their
<br /> 39 distinctive features and details. Repair deteriorated or damaged outbuildings and
<br /> 4o accessory structures and their character-defining features, elements, and details
<br /> 41 using like materials. Repair work may require traditional construction methods,
<br /> 42 such as the use of hand tools, to retain the integrity and authentic appearance of
<br /> 43 the historic building or building feature.
<br /> 44
<br /> 45 II-C-3. Replace any missing or deteriorated element of contributing outbuildings or
<br /> 46 accessory structures to match the original in design, material, dimension, and detail.
