The design of the Weber Round Barn stands out from other area round barns in its vitrified tile walls, a development used in later period American round barns. The Robert Weber Round Barn was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
The James Bruce Round Barn is a round barn located near the Stephenson County, Illinois city of Freeport, United States.

The Edward Ransom Farmstead, Livestock and Equipment Barn was a historic agricultural outbuilding in rural White County, Arkansas. It was located on the Ransom Farmstead, a few miles south of Midway, on the west side of United States Route 167. It was a 1+1⁄2-story structure, built in part out of logs and in part out of wood framing. Its principal form was derived from three log cribs, joined by saddle- and V-notching, a form not seen anywhere else in the county. It was built about 1915.
The P Ranch is a historic ranch in Harney County in southeastern Oregon, United States. The remaining ranch structures are located on the west bank of the Donner und Blitzen River in the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. The ranch was built by Peter French, a well known 19th-century cattle baron. The P Ranch became headquarters for the French-Glenn Livestock Company, which eventually covered over 140,000 acres (570 km2). After French was murdered in 1897, the French-Glenn Livestock Company slowly sold off the P Ranch property. In 1935, the United States Government purchased the remaining P Ranch property to add to an adjacent wildlife refuge. The Civilian Conservation Corps demolished most of the original ranch buildings in the 1930s, and a fire destroyed the main ranch house in 1947. The few remaining P Ranch structures are now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

After French was murdered in 1897, the French-Glenn Livestock Company slowly sold off its ranch property. In 1935, the United States Government purchased the Sod House Ranch property to add to an adjacent wildlife refuge.
