The Clarence Anderson Barn is a historic barn on the north side of Arkansas Highway 66 in the hamlet of Newnata, Arkansas. It is a two-story wood-frame structure, with vertical board siding and enclosed sheds on the side. The interior is organized in a transverse crib manner. Built in 1925, the building is distinctive for the pair of gable-roof dormers placed near the ridge line; this sort of feature is not usually found on barns in the region. [2]

The barn was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. [1]
