It was gorgeous, field-stone foundation, wooden pegs securing the beams. It was torn down for a housing development,  I was probably about 10 years old and was fascinated watching it's demolition. My friends and I watched sadly as our "hang out" was destroyed. After all the wood siding was removed (and sold) a massive chain was wrapped around a corner post and attached to a bulldozer. To our amazement and joy (add the operators anger) The barn stood and the tracks of the bulldozer dug a hole in the ground. He had to use a chainsaw at various points to weaken the structure. Sad to see these old barns going away.</p></blockquote><p></p>
