The old Dutch style barns are quite distinctive but I don't particularly take to them.

I like the look of these better...just a personal preference.

Did you ever read The Go Between?

About what happens in an old English barn.

Actually, it was the hay loft.

That captures my thoughts on old barns from my days growing up in Ohio.

I wonder if folks still say, " Were you born in a barn" in response to a certain forgetful action?

" Were you born in a barn"

"As a matter of fact, yes!"

The English Barn in the New World


The English barn went out of favor after 1830, in part because they were seen as too small, inefficient and old-fashioned. Instead, the most popular 19th century New England barnbecame the gable roofed barn with the main door located on the gable end instead of in the side wall.

Have you ever driven through the Kentucky horse farm country ?
You see people stopping to take pictures all the time.

Not sure where this is.

 

[the other mike]

That's a cool place.

 

[the other mike]

Been on this a few times.

Not a barn, but a all important corn crib... To those that understand just how hard farmers worked back then...

I grew up in Maryland. If you drove out from the cities a few miles you'd see barns like this everywhere, mostly tobacco barns.
