(businesspress24) - As far back as the days when Thomas Jefferson envisioned a new nation that depended upon the farming industry for economic stability and freedom, family farms have been a vital aspect of the American social consciousness. Barns have always been one of the main focal points of the farming business structure, evoking a sense of security and tradition, as well as a closeness for the surrounding land and community.
Structural Components
Horse Barns Lancaster PA generally construct barns that include box stalls for the horses and tack rooms for saddles, equipment and harnesses. Larger barns may have stalls that are arranged in rows with aisles in between. Some may even have extended roofs for restrooms and shade.
Other characteristics may include Dutch or divided doors with small windows to provide ventilation and light. Most of the freestanding horse barns that are found in Pennsylvania, however, postdate 1960. Historically, horses in that region were stabled in carriage houses and larger barns. Horse barns also appear on farms where horses are bred or boarded or on Plain Sect farms.
Modern Barns
Even today, Barns Lancaster PA present strong images of community spirit. Many farm families had looked to older barns as the link to their past, as many farmers built barns before houses. The structure of the living space came secondary to the farming business. This is why old barns have become landmarks in their communities. Long after a farming business may end, the barn is retained in its existing structure and merely updated for other purposes.
Barns are also subject to changes in farm technology, however, they can be remodeled in order to accommodate larger machinery and production facilities. Regardless of how they are used, barns continue to embody the local customs and ethnic traditions of their communities. As such, they continue to adapt to ever changing farming advances, practices and building technologies.
