I am wondering if there is a certain time period where old barns had cupolas installed on them. My barn was built between 1900 and 1910. Have made the decision to invest the money and have it redone this summer with new steel siding, roof, doors, and vinyl windows. It will hopefully look new again and last for the rest of my lifetime. I'd like to have a cupola installed as I like the looks of them, but am wondering if they were used during the time period of 1900-1910. To my knowledge this barn never had one, and any older generation people from my family who may know are all gone. I don't want to buy one, restore it, and pay to put it on if it isn't correct for the time period.
Thanks
