I have never been able to identify this early-20th-century structure, located in the extreme eastern section of Ben Hill County, near Macedonia Baptist Church. Obviously, it has been used as a barn for many years, but the architecture would suggest some other original purpose. My best guess is that it was a schoolhouse, but it could have also been a church or even a store. The photograph dates to circa 2012, and I’m not sure if the building is still standing.

I am thinking this was a country store at one time. I’m surprised so much it it is still standing, a testament to how well built it is.
