In this video, different aspects of the barn are filmed as to give an overview of the barn. Ron Pyle, his sister Myrna Samsel, a young boy named Caleb, and a friend are carefully taking apart the Pyle barn, which was built in 1928 by Myrna and Michael's grandfather. Some of the old equipment from the barn is examined, such as a Del Monte box, and a metal barrel which held molasses. It takes pretty much five days to completely remove the barn. The first part of the video covers the first day and then it skips to day 5.

Kurt Anhder talks about the history of Richmond, some details about the historic barn on his property, and information about other barns in the area. The house and barn were originally built by the Fullers. The house was built in 1908 and the barn between 1920 and 1930. He says that a barn with a cement silo was probably not built any later than this. His barn has tongue and groove construction and wooden pegs.

Unfortunately, the sound of the recording is very bad, and it is hard to hear.
