The View from Hackley Mill Road.

Mount Moriah Baptist Church
InSpired Sunday and Shadow Shot Sunday.
Services are held here twice a month. According to Amissville.com, this church was built in 1883.

The rest of this post is devoted to a lovely farm where horses are trained, Mountain View Farm. We saw it today on the Rappahannock Farm Tour.



These horses have fine accommodations.

I've seen clerestories in large stables before. I assume the purpose is to increase light and fresh air.

I now have over 500 posts showing Farms, so feel free to take a look.  For rural scenes on other blogs, visit The Barn Collective.

    Pretty little church. That's interesting about the clerestory windows.

    I’ve never heard of those kind of windows in a barn, but it does make perfect sense. Farm tours are great! We have done several in Florida and enjoyed and learned so much from them.

    Your shot of the horse is my favourite of the set.

    Barns do need all the ventilation they can get :)
