Description
Another dream lost!
This all-but-forgotten place is located near the tiny rural town of Hollister, in Halifax County North Carolina.
I was unable to find any history on the place, let alone whom to talk to that has any information on it.
Looks like another family's one-time dream has been lost in history, with only a photograph left to remember it by. What a shame!
Thanks for looking, have a historically memorable day!

sometimes it is from not being able to continue farming from money issues, but I think often it is large companies buying the farms up "lock stock and barrel" and they have no use for the old farm houses so the decay as this one. excelent capture Troy
Love this serie ! It's sad....Because work, memories ,beauty of these places are lost!Just a photo, to imagine.
I think I like this one the best out of all your 'forgotten/abandoned' series...colour, compo and presentation are perfect Troy ! ...this is really stunning!

Hello!!Also today another your superb capture!But it is a little sad vision this house entirely left! It comes spontaneous to think as sad story can have had the old proprietors of this house! It displeases a lot because the place is very beautiful immersed between the peace of the nature..Excellent shot!!Really well done my dearest friend Troy!!V!!I wish you a happy sunday!A big kiss and a big hug!!
Bet it was a charming home at one time. How sad.
It's typical farm house, the memory of the old time, excellent shot Troy! Have an great sunday!
Sad relict but wanderful shot!
Just imagine a proud father posing on his land, with a busy mother and a bunch of playing kids and chickens and dogs around the house... What happened? Beautiful image with a sad nostalgic feeling!
Litlle House on the Prairie! Wonderful find Troy! The top floor seems to be leaning some?! It's sad that so many are left behind. I almost think some are lost due to loosing their families in wars. Breaks my heart to so many dreams lost.
echo velvets sentiments..beautiful troy excellent :)
Excellent photo, Troy ! I like the lanscape format very much but would have choosen for a white border ... just IMHO...) :~)
The more I see and the more I love this serie too ! and I agree with Jean-Pierre about the sadness... I like your pano size for this one, who give as a more importance to this old house. Great Troy ! Have a good evening. Hugs. V
Fantastic capture of this abandoned house here! The architecture seems far more European here to me (the first thought that came up in my mind seeing this). Gorgeous work, Troy! :)
Allways a fantastic photo, your way! "...another family's one-time dream has been lost in history..." Yes, my friend and many others will be! Hope you had your historically memorable day!! And wish you a fantastic week!!
Beautiful capture. Excellent presentation
