I worked out I could fit 24 cars in there, or a hundred ish motorbikes.

I prefer the latter.

I had to fix the door yesterday, fixing "things" never ends when you have a farm.

I guess within a year or three I will need to completely remake the doors, not easy when they are 20 feet tall.

I left this barn alone, let it be, never took the things out I sort of inherited when I moved in.
Sort of a pay homage to times gone before me, a time when horses were used to farm the land.

There are still horse bridles, is that the correct word?

Not a horse person so unsure. Horse power of BHP yes.

There are other things in there I have no idea how or desire to use.
Like I say, this is a barn I very rarely go in. It is more like a museum now than a working barn.

Once upon a time I dare say them scales had a very important use.
A bit like this bit of kit that still works.

You put things in the top, turn the handle and what you want comes out the bottom, corn for a guess, maybe wheat, no idea, just guessing.

Old plough for use with a horse? Yes got a few of them too.

There is an old cart for a horse to pull, 10 feet long too, never took a pic of that, it sits next to the barn in it's own house. I have no intention of getting rid of it either. It can stay as a reminder of days gone by. I have some tales to tell about that one day, hence it stays put.

I use a part of it for wood storage for the many repairs I have to do.
Making fences, benches, swings, doors and things.

Wood was never my thing, it is a must now.

7 years I have been thinking about getting that bench out to use it, but with very little time to sit down, what is the point?

There are other things I have no idea how to use.

Some days I am lucky to get the time to even photo stuff like that, let alone consider changing it.
Well that is my unused by me barn, the other is full of motorbikes, but now needs a roof repair, so off I go again, doing things I have never done before, why not hey.

Have a superb Sunday one and all.
