A barn no longer in use, displays the architecture of earlier times. It adds a historical touch
to a rural landscape in Missouri.

Love historical building. It has to be quite old if built of stone, because most barns built in the past 100 years have been of wood. It reminds me of a barn you’d find in Europe.

Yes . . . makes me wonder who actually built it. The round roof is definitely different from the norm.

The old wooden barns are disappearing. No one repairs them, and new ones are often made of metal, now. Just not the same.

No character in a metal barn!

That’s right. But rain on the roof might sound comforting . . . ?

Looks like it’s partly of stone, which is unusual in my experience. Wonder what influenced that?

My imagination runs with me about this one. Maybe the stone was picked up to clear the farmland, and it was available and would be durable through the years. ? You think? There were round bales of hay near the barn, but I didn’t see any animals. Might have been around on the back forty! 🙂

My family used to watch a lot of cowboy movies when I was younger; I grew up thinking that every family in America had a barn in their backyard 🙂

If you research old barns in New England, some were connected to the house.
