The Sam Cooley Barn is a historic barn, located just outside Bald Knob, Arkansas south of Collins Road. It is a two-story frame structure in a transverse crib configuration, with a metal roof, vertical board walls, and a stone pier foundation. Its main drive is oriented east-west, with the main vehicle entrance on the west, topped by a sliding door at the second level to allow tall equipment into the barn, and an animal entrance on the north side. Built about 1920, it is one of the best-preserved barns of that period in White County.[2]
The barn was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1]
