We really liked the metal doors on the first
barn we saw. They are lighter than the wooden ones and they let in
lots of light with the windows at the top.
On this barn, we liked the brick along the
bottom. We are going to put the same shingles on the barn as the
house so we would also like to put the same brick we use for the house on
the bottom of the barn.
I have always wanted a horse weather vane on top
of the cupola.
They had a really pretty porch alongside this
barn.
This shows the wooden doors that are the other
option.
My favorite thing about this barn was actually
that it had a very small paddock around the back. This is very handy
to keep a horse in for a short period of time right after you wash it or
perhaps waiting for the farrier. I am definitely going to include
this in my pasture layout.
This is an example of the stalls. Instead
of a window in the back, our stalls will have another door that will lead
out into the run-in.
Wait a minute! This is bigger and nicer than my office at
work! AND, it has a window.
Chris is looking perplexed about
something. The door to the tack room is right behind him.
Our stall doors will look very similar to
these. However, there will be a v-shaped portion in the upper door
that I can remove so Dumbledore will be able to hang his head out and look
up and down the aisleway.
