It comprises a large frame dairy barn with a Gothic-arch roof, a concrete-block bottling plant, a frame granary, two concrete silos, a cistern and a concrete water trough.","why_significant":"The nomination argues that the buildings embody the distinctive characteristics of American dairy farm buildings of about 1920 to 1950, and that the barn's exceptional length and Gothic-arch roof set it apart from comparable barns in Davie and Forsyth counties. The complex was developed by R. J. Reynolds executive S. Clay Williams, whose herd of 484 cows in 1945 was far larger than any other in the county. The buildings are presented as showing period advances in sanitation, mechanization and efficient dairy layout.","narrative":"Built about 1930 on the eastern edge of Davie County, North Carolina, the Win-Mock Farm Dairy is a group of three main buildings and two structures that together formed a complete commercial dairy. The dairy barn is a two-story frame building 38 feet wide and 180 feet long, with a Gothic-arch roof, nine-light slanting windows along both sides, and two concrete silos at its north end. A concrete-block bottling plant is joined to the barn by a covered walkway, and a frame granary with its own Gothic-arch roof stands nearby. The complex was developed for R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company executive S. Clay Williams, whose herd of 484 cows in 1945 was nearly four times the size of the next largest in the area. Its barn and layout are presented as reflecting the sanitation, ventilation and labor-saving practices of the period, and as exceptional for their size in the county.","period_of_significance":"ca. 1930","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"No Style","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"The now-unoccupied barns stand on a tract of 18.39 acres owned by the Hillsdale Group, LLC, with part of the western portion developed as a mixed-use development.","vacant_flag":true,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-haiku-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.1-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 17:11:41.689528-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/79/7199/47719979/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NC/10001057.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/10001057/7f0f7e7510-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/10001057/7f0f7e7510-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 4.0","author":"Rufous-crowned Sparrow","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Win-Mock_Farm_Dairy.JPG\" rel=\"noopener\">Rufous-crowned Sparrow</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 4.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Win-Mock_Farm_Dairy.JPG"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/47719979","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Win-Mock_Farm_Dairy","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q18395085"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/north-carolina/davie-county/win-mock-farm-dairy-10001057/"}
