Will, I viewed a 36'x34' english barn yesterday, 16' posts, with an added bent acting as a manure shed. Scribed it was. No visible addresses, once again. found red and white dates and cursive initials in the barn, 1859, and A. W. The farm house built in 1815 also in very nice shape, as was 3 other smaller timbered out building, I've never seen so many in one spot. None of them were attached. The barn is so close to a CG, if the top plate was dropped just a matter of inches you would have it. The tie sets on the top plate. It also had "binding Beams", I'll look into that. Tim
