The building gains additional significance...as an important and well-preserved example of a highly distinctive style of barn architecture. It is all the more exceptional for being an urban example of the Mountain Horse Barn, a type that developed and proliferated in rural areas surrounding Melrose in response to the particular ranching conditions in the region. The high quality of craftsmanship, associated with the log building traditions of the Norwegian immigrant who built the barn, makes the Wold Barn all the more worthy of listing....[2]
