There's "weathered" and then there's "neglected". I'd put this one in the second category and it's probably too late to save it now unless someone's willing to spend a lot of money on it. It's a pity.
I see new "pole buildings" going up occasionally but I haven't seen a barn less than 80 years old in these part for a very long time-- and none of them is all that well maintained. Like your picture.
I love the look of weathered barns, tho I do hate to see them falling down.
ReplyDeletePoor old thing...
ReplyDeletePoor baby!
ReplyDeleteOh I feel sad to see it so weathered but there's also some joy to see that it's still standing and seems to be functional as well. I love barns!

ReplyDeleteshe is a grand old gapped toothed lady. love it
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteIt looks like it is barely hanging in there. Take care, enjoy your day and week ahead.
Don't know how long this weathered barn will continue to stand firm.
ReplyDeleteC'est triste de voir ces belles granges tomber en ruine, mais pour nous consoler, elles nous donnent un beau sujet de photographie !
ReplyDeleteA great find with nice textures! Structurally, it must be sound as it's just the roof and walls that are in poor shape. Is the farm still active?
ReplyDeleteI like the weathered look.
ReplyDeleteThe old barn looks a little worse for wear at this point. It seems to have been doing its duty for a long time.
ReplyDeletePretty sad, I think. Also lovely---go figure

Nice old weathered barn. Looks like it's been there awhile.
ReplyDeleteThat barn has seen better days, but is still hanging on.
ReplyDeleteI like the barn's metalic look. Neat shot.
ReplyDeleteLove this old barn! IT's interesting how a different perspective gives different details.

Cool barn.
ReplyDeleteokay, now you have shot it coming and going... which is its good side?
ReplyDeleteThis is a nice old barn. I like the weathered wood. I love taking pictures of barns!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a kid living on the farm we had a barn with a similar shape. We had very old boards instead of metal sheeting. Great photo.
ReplyDeleteDoes looks a bit sad!! May be a few days later, it could do with a coat of paint !!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful old barn
