Description
Two bronze lions guard the stone barn built in the early 1900’s to house the prize Jersey herd of Colonel Samuel P. Colt. Within the huge barn is an elegant, octagonal room, designed to display the trophies which the cows were to win. In 1916 the finishing touches were added to the barn. An artist, brought from Paris to paint in Colt’s Bristol home, came to the farm and painted a mural in Colt’s barn office. That same year, Colonel Colt purchased the first Jerseys to occupy his magnificent barn. From these he hoped to breed the world’s finest Jersey herd.enjoy the image.
