Liberty #6, Round Grove School

One day in July 2004 we were coming home from Davenport and we decided to take a back road scenic tour.  We were on Iowa State Highway 130 when we came across this huge stone school at the NW corner 35th Avenue, east of New Liberty.  It was owned by a farmer, who stored hay and other stuff in it.

The following photos were taken on 11/27/13

UPDATE 6/6/15:  This school burned on 25 April 2014.  On 6/4/15, we drove past the site and this photo shows where this school stood.
