Decaying in Washington

Three outbuildings on a Washington farm (for sale!) northeast of the Goodnoe ghost town. Best viewed in Lightbox--i.e., press "L" on keyboard.

 

I have strong suspicions that the center building was once a one-room schoolhouse that had long since been converted to something of use on a farm. This is based solely on the fact that there are windows on one side only* and there is a small entryway--both being rather superfluous for a storage shed. The dormer is a bit unusual for a small school like this, but again, it's even more unusual for a tool shed.

 

It was much darker than appears here as the sun had set more than 30 minutes before.

 

This is a Pano combining three shots using my 50mm lens.

 

The placement on the map is an approximation.

 

*You see this in the old one-room's over and over--one side for light, the other for blackboards and/or bookshelves, etc.
