If barns could talk, continued... Why Tear it Down?
When Len and Susan Ellis Dougherty decided to move out of downtown Baltimore, they found a property in Cockeysville that had recently been subdivided. T e lot they chose included the original farmhouse built in 1870, an old red barn and a chicken house. T e couple had the option to tear it all down but wanted to fi x it up instead. T e barn became a place to store wood for Leonard’s artwork furniture and a section was converted into an area for Susan Ellis to pot plants for her gardens. Eventually, they replaced the siding on the barn and the chicken shed became an art studio.
Pictured above left is the snow covered barn in 2001 with its origional red board siding. T e siding of the barn was redone and part of the barn was converted into a potting barn (pictured above right)
