New Hampshire is speckled with fabulous barns. It's very common in New England for the barn and house to be attached. I didn't get any fantastic pictures of those, but I did stop to take photographs of two wonderful barns in Jackson, New Hampshire. They're pretty fabulous if you ask me.
A bit farther toward Black Mountain Ski Area is this handsome spectacle. A huge, sprawling barn nestled on the side of the hill. I don't even recall if it had/has a name. Another question for Al. No matter, it's still an amazing specimen.
Front view so you can see the enormity of the structure and how it sits on a slope. New England barns are just fabulous! I could have wandered and taken pictures all day!
I'm joining Tom's party today at The Barn Collective.
...the Pitman barn is weathered to perfection. It's interesting to see that second one has cedar shakes on the sides and white clapboards on the gable end. When I was in Vermont I saw some barns connected to houses. A good idea in the winter. Thanks Martha for sharing part of your trip.
ReplyDeleteI fell in love with New England farms. They are quite fabulous.
DeleteI love barns!! Your photos are priceless.
ReplyDeleteI love all the history involved too.
So many of the barns around here are too far off the road to take pictures or there is no pull off area to snoop and photograph.
I was nice to capture a great barn and be able to hear a little bit of the history. I was also happy to see so many great barns in fabulous condition.
DeleteBarns are such a sign of hope for the future. Full of grain for times to come.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Yes. Signs of hope. I like that.
DeleteTwo fabulous barns. No. 1 wins my vote for charm, but No. 2 really looks amazing and I could imagine a whole farm could fit in there during the Winter. I love the barns in nearby Ontario and take lots of photos when we visit our daughter. Hope we can return to Nth America again one day :)
ReplyDeleteI also love the "Pitman Barn." And there is something majestic about the other. I do hope you are able to visit your daughter again soon, and yes, Ontario is full of barns as well.
