Another barn from southern Chester County, Pa. This is another barn that we kept driving past all day. So the last day that week we stopped by to take some pictures. Remember last week I mention that this was horse country, well, when we stopped this horse was crowding his way into the picture. I didn't notice, however, the date stone until I got closer. Many of the older houses in this area near Strickerville have these date stones up high, something I haven't seen anywhere else. This barn sits at the intersection of Strickerville Road and Appleton Road just 1500 yards north of the Maryland border.
