Barn on Rymal Rd., Hamilton, Ont.

This old barn has been sitting at the busy corner of Rymal Rd. and Upper Centennial Pkwy in Hamilton for years. Access is iffy because you have to park across the street and then cross Rymal Rd. on foot before making the long trek up the locations' driveway, which is out in the open.

There are the ruins of the old farmhouse but it is overgrown and difficult to photograph.

These photos are from April 2013.

Amazingly what one more winter has done to this place, as it has deteriorated much more since the fall time. You managed to find a sight-unseen though in the form of the clock. That's a new one, though it is hard to not miss many things in this place with all the junk strewn everywhere.

Funny, I just mentioned this place to my wife yesterday. We followed our GPS to pick up an Xbox title for our son and ended up right around the corner at a house with a few teens running around. I actually pointed to the barn and nudged my wife, wondering if the kids were part of the spray-paint gang that destroyed the barn and a few houses down the road.

I can bet what a difference just one winter made. With all of the urban sprawl going on all around it I would be surprised it the property is flattened out in another year or so.

There was another old location across Hwy 56 from this one but I was too late in getting to it. The location must have been demolished within the last 2 or 3 years.

But atleast with this farm setup that is still standing, some of us managed to get photos of it before it's gone forever.
