I can assure you that here and there are barns with real gems 'hidden' inside. I have seen a barn with at least half a dozen Minors ripe for a keen owner and not one of them was a shed. I even took one home with me. It was solid as a rock and the best Minor I ever had.
Older and more confused than I could ever imagine possible.

It does make me laugh when i see the Ebay pictures of barn finds that are in someones garage, but i have been on a farm and seen three barns full of cars in various states, i have asked him numerous times about a husky van and an anglia van but he does not want to part with any cars.

I bought a Morris (pre minor) last year. It was pulled out of a barn where it had been for a number of years to be auctioned off

I saw a very crusty old motorbike described as a 'pond find'.

Was the pond IN a barn though?
Further investigations uncovered it was an inside job!!

May be it was found in or at Barnlake, Neyland, Penbrokeshire. :D :D
