Geauga County – April 26, 2024
This is a beautiful Barn, well situated. Where to view and visit: 13034 Madison Road, south of US 322 and north of Middlefield. There is a private drive leading from Madison Road to the Barn, but be careful to not block the owners’ traffic into and out of their property (41.51564, -81.05171). Taken April 26,…

Summit County – February 18, 2024
This is a very shy Barn since it seems to always be hiding behind the phragmites on Route 8. There isn’t a way to approach from the east without trespassing, so your choice is limited to viewing from the elevated road. If I were more foolish, I might stage a breakdown there by the side…

Medina County (Seville) – November 4, 2023
The Medina County Barn north of Seville is sometimes visible from the northbound lanes of i71 due to the trees growing up west of this Barn. There doesn’t seem to be any obvious clue that we’re approaching this vantage point on i71 to remind me to take a picture and I’ve been missing this Barn…

Delaware County – November 4, 2023
One of three Barns I was able to photograph today on a day-trip to Columbus with a friend (who insisted on driving, giving me the opportunity to snap a few photos). Where to view and visit: 6844 Bale Kenyon Road, Lewis Center (40.17054, -82.96183)There is a parking lot at the church across the street that…

Ashland County – November 4, 2023
I was on my way to Columbus for the day with a friend (who was driving) and was able to photograph this Barn both going down (SB) and coming back (NB). We spent the day at The Ohio Pen Show since we’re both fountain pen aficionados (in my case, the more enthusiastic kind than the…

Lorain County – August 13, 2023
This Barn was re-sided and not re-painted, but it still looks pretty good. I was headed back home from being on Staff at a Woodbadge course (Boy Scouts) function this weekend and decided to visit a few Barns. There’s a wide place to stop just in front of this Barn and I took it. Getting…

Huron County (Olena) – August 11, 2023
The Huron Barn in Olena may be the prettiest I’ve seen so far. It may have been the day or perhaps it was the color of the sky and the light touch of clouds. Or it could be the color of the Barn against the green of the grass. Whatever the reason, this is a…

Wayne County – August 6, 2023
We were in the neighborhood for a near-family reunion of sorts—more of a two-generation family vacation than anything else. This is one of two Barns on US 250, one of four within a very short distance of that road. And it’s also a Barn that you can see from aerial photographs. On Rt 250 about…

Summit County – July 4, 2023
Our fourth and final Barn this Independence Day was happenstance on the way home. There doesn’t appear to be any safe way to stop and compose a good photo of this Barn—my wife snagged this through the passenger window on the way by. I don’t exactly know why, but I have a strange feeling this…

Trumbull County – July 4, 2023
We were on a Bicentennial Barn tour this Independence Day and managed to visit four. How this one is situated was a surprise to me since these Barns are usually out in the open and more visible and less concealed. Of course, many of the trees in front of this Barn are small and may…
