Town Barns we're talking about here...(or are we?) Because society's infrastructure has encroached upon them, they are no longer esteemed as their iconic rural counterparts, which adorn calenders and invite passers-by to admire and even stop to do a "photo-op." No, these centenarians receive only the occasional furtive glance with no thought of...
