For Barn Charm....

Going through the archives the other night, I ran across these of one of the round barns near here.
At one time this barn was needing a new roof, and I was beginning to wonder if it was going to be let go till it fell to the ground. I was so happy to go back by and discover the new roof...now if I just had the courage to ask to see the inside!

This is my entry for Tricia's Barn Charm....I hope you will join us there.

    This is wonderful, Rose! We used to have one here in East Gwillimbury but it was torn down before I moved here. I've only seen a drawing of it. This is so cool!

    This is a neat round barn. I'm glad it's gotten a new roof. I also hope you can get a peek inside some day.

    There was a round barn near where I live when I moved here about 35 years ago, but sadly...it fell apart. It certainly wasn't as beautiful as this one! Amazing! These are such great photos.

    This is one of the pretties, coolest barns I’ve seen. I just love the shape--so much character. I am so happy they saved it!!

    Wow - I love this!
    Really nice shots Rose.
    It would be nice to see inside. This one I'd really like to convert to a home.

    I forgot this week. :(

    I've only seen a round barn once I believe. I hope you do get to go inside. I would love to see the pictures.

    Excellent!! Imagine roofing a round area. I believe there is a round barn in Eastern Washington that is on the historic record. But I have never seen it. Now I must. MB

    A fine shot of this unusual barn. I too would wonder about the interior arrangement. It looks as if it would have a difficulty unique to this style of construction. It's great that it is being maintained.

    Thank you so much for sharing this. I bet anyone who cared enough to give it a new roof would love to let you take a look (and some photos) inside. He or She may want to talk you to death about this great building. It has to be a passion.
    We have both round and octogon shaped barns in this state but most are in great disrepair. They are a rarity.

    This is great! YOu will have to tell me where it is. I posted the one near Washington, In in my last post and then saw another round barn in Katney's blog! This must be the week for round barns! How funny!

    That is the most unusual round barn I have ever seen. We got lots of round barns here in Vermont, but not like that one!!! Where exactly is it ? Looks like no snow would stay on that roof--an advantage!!
    Wonder when it was built..
    You need to build up some courage and ask the barn owner for a tour.
    PLEASE!
    Come visit the barns of Vermont and my herd, when you have a chance:

    Gosh this is a beauty! I've never seen a round barn quite this massive!

    Here's one from our hometown, from my old blog:
