County Route 47, Town Of Stockholm And Norfolk - Part 1

I often traveled County Route 47 at night while driving to and from community chorus rehearsals, so one day I decided to drive it during the day and see what I'd been missing. The road had lots of spectacular old barns, though most of them are now sitting idle:

Many of the smaller barns, however, were being used for horses:

These outbuilding held farm equipment:

A modern style barn with piles of round hay bales stored under its canopy. I wish I could keep my hay bales out of the rain:

An attractive setup for horses:

An old barn behind a traditional split rail cedar fence:

An old shed, no longer used. It appeared to me as this was once someone's house, tiny though it is:

A large and elaborate farm house, behind cedar split rail fence:

A big red barn with a couple of horses enjoying the sunshine:

A string of barns, laid out in the New England style. I was just getting started on my driving tour though, and there was still much to see. I'll post Part 2 tomorrow:
