A proposal has been submitted to build a large 40’x60’x22’ pole barn directly across from the 1876 Welsh Church historical landmark in Nelson, NY. The proposed barn would also include a parking area for large farm equipment and other potential eye sores, destroying the scenic beauty and views of this beautiful piece our town, state, and national history. This would substantially have an adverse effect upon the scenic vista surrounding the historic Welsh Church and disrupt our communities ability to enjoy the well preserved character, heritage and sprawling open views this area has maintained for over 100 years.

We are asking that they move the location of this proposed giant pole barn to another site in order to protect the views of the Welsh Church and it's scenic vistas.
