Cool old barn. Looks like it's kept up well.

This is the front of the barn I showed it here once before but I just took the shots of underneath yesterday.

Not familier with the term bank barn. What does that mean?

Built into the side of hill basically. "Basement" of the barn open to the outside on one side, ramp up to the "main floor" on the other. Easy for feeding livestock in the bottom, storing their food up top. Plus store other stuff on the main level. Lots of them in the midwest.

A bonk barn is built into a hillside. You can drive in on more then level I have seen three levels, perhaps there could be more.

Here we call them basement barns. Can drive into the haymow to unload hay, Cows have the lower level, flush with the ground on the side opposite of the haymow driveway.
