Wow - this looked like one of your more-or-less typical farms until I had a closer look, still hard to believe that this was a schoolhouse at one time!

A great find and nice, sharp photo. I hope you are never going to run out of old barns. Keep them coming. They are good for my soul.

Interesting shape for an old school house. It does suggest it may have started as a 1 room brick school house and added (wood) extra space/rooms as needed. Bev
It was indeed a one-room school to begin with. The sheds were added sometime after it was no longer a school. Thanks for looking.

Good to know it’s still in use John, very good shot. 
Thanks, Sylvia, There aren’t many of the old one-roomers left around here.

Thanks, Joe. I was in the building a few years ago, and the old slate chalkboards are still on one of the walls.

Interesting... when I looked at the download I noticed the bricks above the doorway. 
That would make me nervous every time I opened the door!
