This is the Stewart Octagon. We have lived here since 1983. The house was built before the Civil War. It was built using O. Fowler’s directions in his 1854 book titled “A Home For All”. The walls are solid concrete about 1 1/2 feet thick.

Number OH-78-04 on the Ohio Round Barn List. Here is a closeup from their website:
