A pole barn in North America is a barn that is essentially a roof extended over a series of poles. They are generally rectangular and do not require exterior walls. The roof is supported by the poles, which make up the perimeter of the barn. [8] Walls may be added to pole barns but are not required for structural integrity.

The design is similar to English barns except for the bank and basement aspects. The basement space could be utilized for animals while the area above, easily accessed by wagon because of the bank, could be used for feed and grain storage. [4] Bank barns can be considered English barns raised on an exposed full basement. [11]
