Barn Series - Irish Barn Two

As I indicated last week, these barn photos unfortunately were shot from a moving coach on narrow lanes that changed directions frequently.  Perhaps on my next trip to Ireland, I can get good, close photos of the barns!  (Already planning the next trip to Ireland , but with a fiber flavor to the next one!)

This one appears to have the more modern, semi-circular metal roof on it, as opposed to the traditional roofline of the one last week.  One can see in both of these barns that there are few windows in the structures - I am not certain if that has to do with the weather, cost to build a window, or the climate inside the structure itself.

That is a hedgerow fence in the foreground there.  Our coach driver, Frank Fitzpatrick, indicated these hedgerows just keep growing and the farmers simply trim them to the depth they desire.

Makes you wonder what's IN the hedgerow! (and the barn...)
