Great looking old farmhouse with a definite lean quality. Most likely due to the constant wind generated by the nearby fans. Structure is completely unstable, looks like it could topple over at any moment. Lots of hazards hidden in the tall grass, including boards with nails, rusty equipment, and an open well. Watch your step. Across the road is an old farm windmill, which is a great contrast to the mega-fans surrounding the area. The old farm has a very photogenic appeal, but laced with danger at every step.

"Most likely due to the constant wind generated by the nearby fans." Nope, those fans don't generate wind, they just use it to turn turbines. In fact by doing so they would slow down the overall wind speed in the area, but not by a discernible amount.
