A large barn was destroyed in an early morning fire at 17 Kingsley Road in Raymond on Sunday.

Raymond Fire Chief Bruce Tupper said the owners of the barn reported the fire at about 5:10 a.m. About 30 firefighters from Raymond and surrounding communities worked several hours to extinguish the fire and prevent it from spreading to a house about 70 feet away.

No one was hurt.

The barn was used for storage. It housed a four-bay garage, a tractor, tools, wood and a cider press.

The cause of the fire, which is not suspicious, is under investigation, Tupper said. He said he has called the state Fire Marshal’s Office to help determine the cause.
