The Strap Iron Corral, located about 5.8 miles (9.3 km) north of Hooper, Washington, is a historic corral built in the 1870s by "Uncle Jim" Kennedy.[2][3] It was constructed of native rough-hewn lumber connected by 2.38-inch iron straps, once used as a cap for wooden rails of the Columbia River Railroad. This was converted to solid iron rails in 1875, and at least some of the straps were sold to Kennedy.[4]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.[1]
