I was out and about today and thought you might enjoy these two old stone barns. They are on the State of Iowa Prison farm near Anamosa.
Dairy barn built in 1912. Look at the workmanship on the center part of the barn.
Here is a picture of the rear of the barn. The walls are a good 3 foot thick. Look at how thick the window sills are.
Here is the end of the old Dairy barn. They put a garage door in the barn to make it still useful. They did a pretty good job of keeping it in character. I know the "new" rock are narrower but I bet that the thick old rock would be about impossible to find these days.
This hay barn was built in 1915 to the south of the dairy barn.
I wish I had my camera with me. There are many more buildings on this farm that are unique and just amazing in the quality of workmanship.
