The Jared L. Brush Barn, in rural Weld County, Colorado near Johnstown, Colorado, United States, was built c. 1865. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.^[1]

The barn is notable for its vertical wood siding and steeply pitched gabled roof, with historic shed-roofed additions on each side of the central bay. Its construction features wood-pegged posts and beams, utilizing native wood and stone, marking it as a rare surviving resource from Colorado's pre-railroad and territorial periods
