Color photograph of the exterior of the Willowcroft Barn located on the Willowcroft Historic Farm in Littleton, Colorado. Originally the home of ranches and politician, Joseph Bowles, who served two terms in the state legislature. Constructed of sandstone quarried in nearby Castle Rock, the house has the steeply pitched gables and wood ornamentation typical of the Victorian Gothic style during the 1880s. One building on the property served as a speakeasy during Prohibition. A caretaker's house, barn, smokehouse, and shed add to the rustic setting.
