The barn. by pyrrhula

The barn.

The barn.
I`m very pessimistic about the survival of this barn Even when you`ve found the money what destination will you give it.?
Young people do n`t want to be a farmer. They prefer the city to live in. ( people, living in the country degrease, while those in our big cities increase)
I think the future is that the farm and grounds around will be sold to an other farmer that get a bigger farm with it.
The buildings will be demolition. The soil is easier to manage with bigger equipment's.
And a modern farmer wants a modern house, and needs a modern farm barn that`s cheaper to explore.
At least, in our country it`s often very difficult to get permission to give buildings an other use as where they are made for.
But never despair. Miracles still happened .
Great logic in your thinking - but don't despair just yet as you say miracles can happen

It is what's happening on NZ as well.. but it looks a lovely barn and worth looking after.

De wonderen zijn de wereld nog niet uit..., maar ik deel je pessimisme.

It is a lovely barn. Seems relatively modern in many ways. Hopefully some folks will "love it" and have a nice farm.

A sign of the times unfortunately :)

@quietpurplehaze. Great thinking, In the past it was popular to do this. I do n`t advise anyone. I have seen many marriages claps by trying it. You know when you start but not when you are finnish Only if you can affort a building compagny to do the job and you`re rich enough to keep it.

Great capture of this lovely old barn, and I like the reflections in the windows.

Laten we dan maar op dat wonder hopen :-)

A lot of similar buildings here are turned into nice apartments or luxury houses - I wonder if they could do the same.

Wonderful capture and reflections in the windows. It's so pitiful, isn't it, but at least it won't be transformed into a block of flats as what is happening to the beautiful old houses in Malta. Same here about the farmers.

I hope they can keep some of the wonderful old barns. so important for history

Maybe it needs a wealthy person to convert it into farm stay accommodation :)
