This cottage shows two additions which are on each end of the building. These additions were to accomodate a year round worker's family. The door was moved down to where the original window was. The cottages initially were covered with tar paper not cedar shakes.

Whitesbog from Stabilization to Restoration 1966 ---2009

The Barrel Warehouse was used to store barrels made next door in the barrel factory and later to store boxes both of which were used to ship cranberries to market. The Barrel Factory was the first major restoration that was carried out by the Whitesbog Preservation Trust. Currently it serves as a Agricultural Museum displaying cranberry and blueberry equipment.
