OLD BARN № 093 & 094

Large farms sometimes require multiple barns to satisfy the needs of the homestead, and this pair of barns is one such example! It's also quite fun for me to find multiple barns at a single location, and it's somewhat entertaining to try to deduce the different purposes behind each of the structures.

This first barn looks like it was constructed to house livestock in inclement weather. The wide area on both sides of the drive bay would make a good place for stables for cattle or horses. There's a hay door over the drive bay and it looks like there's a quite large hay loft for storing hay once it has dried. Two more drive bays on each side can house a tractor or other farming equipment and implements.

The second barn looks more like a storage building to me, or perhaps a place to house smaller livestock such as goats. Because of the presence of a hay door over the main doors, there must be a small hay loft over the main level of the building. There's a separate side-shed on the right-side of the barn with its own door.

Looking at the farm from an aerial view, one can see large areas of trees planted in rows over a very large area. Some of the trees look like fruit-bearing trees and some of them look like evergreens. Both are probably used for the livelihood of the landowners.
