A shop of some sort.
This is the Judging Pavilion which was built in 1920 by the U. of Wyoming. It was original a machine shed and shop. In 1935 it was modified and transformed into a sheep judging pavilion. On exhibit inside is various vintage agriculture equipment and horse-drawn buggies once used on farms and ranches in the state.

The building also had various information about agriculture and farming issues.
