Probably depends on the part of the country. Tons of "newer" barns out here
have lofts. The guy who lives in the little valley about halfway up our
road has a relatively new barn and it has a loft. The guy across from
"Wrong Turn" has a newer barn and it has a loft. None of the houses on this
road were here prior to the 70s when the origiinal owner of several sections
sub-divided the land, so that explains all the "new" barns on our road.
