I finally got a look into a little barn I've been passing for 30 years. It sits alongside Rt 22 in Canaan NY, and it never really grabbed my attention. I guess I was used to "seeing" it, so I never really looked at it. It turns out is is a CG barn, unlike any barn I've seen around here. It has common rafters going to connnecting girts. There is a large summer beam on either side of the main aisle, with another smaller beam about two feet underneath. There is a very long, 7'+, passing brace that goes from the post to the summer. There are marriage marks at the brace joints. It is a typical English three bent. There is a small bay, ~10' on the north side, the main bay is ~12', and the south bay is ~14'. Rafters are hewn on four sides and about 6" sqaure, and approximately 4' on center. I have permission to take photos, and will try to get back over there this week.
