When firefighters arrived after receiving a call at 4:04 p.m., both an abandoned barn and shed were engulfed in flames, said Hampshire Fire Captain Trevor Herrmann.

Both buildings were destroyed by the blaze, officials said.

Firefighters had the fire under control at 5 p.m., and no one was injured.
