Bath Ranch

The Bath Ranch, also known as the Bath Brothers Ranch and the Stone Ranch, was established near Laramie, Wyoming by Henry Bath about 1869-70. It was one of the first raches in Albany County. The initial homestead was replaced by the present stone house and barn in 1875, using stone quarried locally by Henry and his sons. Since the area was populated by hostile native Americans, the buildings were designed as fortified refuges. The Bath family became prominent in Wyoming society in subsequent years.
