Hay barrack
A hay barrack (haybarrack) is an open structure with a movable roof for storing loose hay on a farm.〔''Oxford English Dictionary'', 2nd ed. quoting Bartlett, Barrack n.1 1.b.〕 Hay barracks were widespread in northern Europe in medieval times, also found in the Alps and North America, but are rare today. Early usage of this term was noted as being peculiar to New York state.〔Bartlett, John Russell. ''Dictionary of Americanisms: a glossary of words and phrases usually regarded as peculiar to the United States'', 4th ed. Boston: Little, Brown, and Company, 1877. 193. http://books.google.com/books?id=bntXAAAAYAAJ〕 Hay barracks were used in much of Europe and parts of colonial America, but were very common in the Netherlands, where they are called ''hooiberg'' or ''kapberg''. ==Etymology== Other names for these structures in the U.K. are Dutch barn〔http://www.ruralia.cz/LITERATURA/zi_rutenberg_und_diemen.pdf page 89.〕 and helm (Possibly from to Old English ''helm'', Proto-Germanic ''helmaz'' and ''helmet'': a protective covering). see (Wiktionary ).
