That is a beautiful barn. Someone has certainly taken care to preserve it.

The idea was the silo in the center and all cattle facing inward close to the feed.

Most beautiful style of barn from the day. An amazing amount of craftsmanship went into those domes.

I am guessing that barn is now in some sort of neighborhood/county park.I

Vinyl rail fence on the left and $500k houses on quarter acre lots in what was the pasture twenty years ago.

My family had a round barn , which is now long gone ,there was no silo in the middle , the cows were in 4 straight
rows just like any other barn , it was very unhandy , the ceilings were very low ,the best thing it ever did was
fall down , and if I hear the joke about the guy who couldnt find a corner to pee in I will really hurt someone .
