The Rector Log Barn is a historic barn in rural

shed-roof extensions, which serve in part to protect the historic log elements. The barn was built by Joseph William Rector, an early settler of Izard County, probably with the use of slave labor.[2]

The barn was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.[1]
