Too many farms are abandoned - hard work for little financial reward unfortunately.

This has an enchanted look about it, Carol. I just about expect a magical beast to drop in.

......maybe but it's still amazing to see Carol:):) Love this barn and the vegetation blanketing it:)

It still looks like a good sturdy barn Carol - its too bad that many farms are disappearing from the landscape.

Oh I do like this one, superb! tigs=^..^=

These Gothic-roofed barns (also called a ^rainbow^ roof) often last a long time, particularly when they are built of cmu (concrete masonry units: blocks) like this one, and possibly laminated beams. Other than an ill-fitting door, the only dilapidation I see is the window near the ridge line. Barns with Gothic roofs like this are usually dairy barns, also identified by a row of small to moderate size windows along the side walls, providing light for each stall. Judging by the size of the door I would guess this barn is not that large, so four stalls for milk cows seems about right.

Happy Trails, Carol
