Ahhhhh I see! No, just for looks. That “old barn” was built in 1952.

That would be a great idea if a guy wanted to protect his shop doors! You can find hydrants with 2-3 ft of pipe still on them. Dig deep and concrete at ground level.

The Caps on them can be taken off and concrete poured in them as well. I know some collectors that do so, it makes extremely heavy. So a guy could in essence have a solid 6 to 8” circumference solid concrete pole hidden inside a Fire Hydrant.

My old barn is just for a few zero turns, Gravley, and a few Rototillers. Lawn and Carpentry Tools. I have another shop.
