KITTERY, Maine — Police confirmed Saturday evening that a fire destroyed an 1880s barn at 199 Brave Boat Harbor Road.

According to Vision Appraisal, the barn is on a property owned by Madeline Gavin.

According to police reports, the fire went to two alarms before it was brought under control.

Kittery police on Saturday evening tweeted a photo of the charred remains of the barn.
