Around the farm [1946 - 1972]

The Poulter farm today Back Home

The farm yard consisted of a two story brick house with front veranda (never really used) and a rear porch (very much used). The yard had a large barn to the east, another to the south, the well house in the middle and some garages in a row on the north side.

The east barn was originally a cow barn, with stable space for cows and horses. On our last visit, nothing had changed in this barn.
