Young Round Barn is a historic round barn at Greene in Chenango County, New York built in 1914. It is located on ‘’’Round Barn Farm’’’.

Design

The barn was built by DeVern Bates for James Clifford Young after his previous barn burned down in 1914. Bates was familiar with circular barn design having designed one for the University of Illinois in 1910. It is a two-story structure, with a large square entrance bay, and a diameter of {{convert|80|ft}}. It is covered by a conical, two slope gambrel roof topped with a circular cupola venting the loft and central silo. DeVern Bates also built the nearby Bates Round Barn.{{cite web|url=http://www.oprhp.state.ny.us/hpimaging/hp_view.asp?GroupView=1154|title=National Register of Historic Places Registration: Young Round Barn|date=May 1984|access-date=2010-02-20 |author=Mark Reinberger|publisher=New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation}} See also: {{cite web|url=http://www.oprhp.state.ny.us/hpimaging/hp_view.asp?GroupView=1155|title=Accompanying three photos}}{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=bzfqqvuTOVsC&dq=Young+Round+Barn+new+york&pg=PA80|title=Round Barns of New York|last=Triumpho|first=Richard|date=2004|publisher=Syracuse University Press|isbn=9780815607960|language=en}}
