Silo for Saturday

I like the overbay(?) on the barn for loading loose hay. Don't see that too often these days.

I’ll be watchful in my travels and see if I can get some pictures. I think I’m traveling an area that has these resources.
It’s interesting the difference in farm architecture you see travel through counties.

Great picture, thanks for sharing.

Cool picture. You don't see to many joined roofs. I have only seen one other at UCONN Storrs, CT campus.

Really interesting! I have never seen silos topped that way.

Allowed you to use 1 unloader for 2 silos. I have never seen it in person but have seen it in various brochures. As far as the end opening, that enables the user to fill the mow using a hay trolley. Never saw that in the northeast, only the midwest and prairie states. Not saying that they don't exist elsewhere but they are probably fairly rare.
