Men tiling the roof of a new barn, 1937

The bare timber frame of a large open barn stands in a flat field, a loaded hay wagon parked in its shade; a row of men sits astride the rafters up the slope of the roof, passing tiles from hand to hand and laying them course by course, while others climb a ladder at the eaves. On the land, a new barn roof was still raised by neighbours working together, as it had been for generations.

Period: c. June 26, 1937–October 8, 1937
