Above is the barn of the Bell-Tierney farmstead. Built in 1916 to replace the original barn, it is now listed on the National register of historic places and today houses a flea market which is shopped by thousands of visitors. The market is open every weekend from May through October. The inventory varies weekly, but you will always find household and sporting goods, clothing, toys, tools and books; homemade jams and jellies are also usually available.
