Ethnological interest of this ensemble. The main dwelling bears the date 1756 on a lintel. The oval barn with thatched roof can be dated to the mid-18th century. In the 19th century, five oval barns exist at the place called La Rivière. Only one barn survives today as a rare testimony to the vernacular heritage of Limousin.
