Dairy Barns

Somewhere in south-central Ontario, possibly Clarington

This must have been a successful dairy operation at one time.

A closer view

The barn needs some TLC. What gives with the topless silos? They are becoming a common sight.

The business has clearly seen better days, but it makes a nice picture anyway.

Looks like it's still storing hay.

Oh dear! Sad to see.
Hope you have a wonderful day!

the small shed makes me think of a manger scene.

Lowell said...

That's a huge complex. I always wonder what happened that the place has gone to seed. Maybe they've sold out and moved on?

Beautiful barn with arch design! Nice snow coating over the roofs

What a heart breaker for those that love barns so much and do not want them to fall into disrepair. I agree with you that in days past it was certainly used. That style of curved roof is one of my favorites. I think it adds so much to the overall appearance of the structure. It looks like it has seen its day and is now headed for the happy hunting ground for old and forgotten barns. The snow is gorgeous.

Not in very good shape...

What a barn complex this is. Thanks so much for sharing this week at The Barn Collective. Please come back with more soon.

Kate said...

What a great addition to the meme!

William Kendall said...

One wonders how many more winters the barn will see before the inevitable collapse.

It's sad to see barns falling into disrepair, although I can certainly understand how it happens!

RedPat said...

Sad to see the disrepair!

Bill said...

These barns have some character unfortunately they need some tending to.

Ruth Hiebert said...

Parts of that building are in dire need of repair.

Stephanie said...

Too bad that the building is falling apart.

poor old thing.

Rose said...

What a big barn it has been...I am to the point that I am happy if they use the metal siding and save them.

Halcyon said...

Too bad about the decay. It looks cold.
