Other Information

Photo 5 is an enlarged inset view from Photo 6. In Photo 5 the Mail Pouch sign on the west end of the barn is visible.

The barn is clearly visible in Historic Aerials' imagery (1958). The distance measurement tool was used to obtain the decimal coordinates for the barn. The coordinates were input to the Google map program and the red pin on photo 5 is the exact location where the Mail Pouch barn once stood.

Where to find it

*GONE* (razed and removed) Along the south side of Rock Cave Rd (WV-4), east of intersection with US-19, by 1.6 mile. The barn was on the right side of the highway headed east. The Mail Pouch sign faced west. One end. Black background.
