Oxley Barn

The Oxley Barn, near Quinter in Gove County, Kansas, is a wood-framed barn with a Gambrel roof. It was built in 1911 and expanded later. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.

It was built by Benjamin Franklin Oxley upon a concrete foundation.

The barn is 54x68 ft in plan, rising to 42 ft and topped by a cupola with one of five lightning rods along the peak of the roof. It was expanded by construction of a lean-to a few years after its original construction in 1911.

It has also been known as the Big Red Barn. A black and white photo from the 1930s shows a farmer and horses in front of the large barn.

It is located about 1.5 mi northeast of Quinter. It can be seen for miles, including from the Interstate 70.
