  •  Interesting Features
    This building is wounded, limping, and about to collapse. That said, it's amazing to see something from the 1850's still around - and moreso abandoned. Much of the second floor has given away to rot, and the first floor is saggy in places.

     History
    There is clear evidence on the building itself that it was built in 1855. I have a friend who says he used to go play around on this property when he was in grade school - so I assume it must have been abandoned by 1980 or so. I can remember the barn standing as recently as 1995, but I was told that the barn blew down in a windstorm, so it must have happened later in that year.

     Future Plans
    If this place doesn't collapse under it's own weight in the next 5 years, it will probably be buldozed for how hazardous and how accessable it is.
