Leatherwood


Leatherwood Drive In Theatre

From the photographer's description:

I finally made it to this long closed drive in theatre known as the Leatherwood Drive In on Route 147 in Belmont County. The theatre once served the town of Barnesville Ohio and had the capacity for 200 vehicles...About everything, except the speakers and poles is still there, although falling further into a state of ruin. The screen still looks good for not having been used for somewhere around 30 years. From what I understand, the old theatre closed sometime in the late 1970s.
