The Jim Morris Barn is a historic barn on the south side of Arkansas Highway 66 in Timbo, Arkansas. It is a two-story gambrel-roofed frame structure, with a stone foundation and board-and-batten exterior. Built in a transverse crib plan, it has a narrow central path instead of a wide drive typical of the form. Built c. 1900, it is unusual in having been designed specifically for the stabling of horses, rather than more general-purpose usage of most area barns.[2]

The barn was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
