The Common Man in Lincoln also burned down, and was rebuilt, including reproducing the famous fireplace.

There is a theme here that these barns are a hazard.

But hopefully, all hope is not lost.
I think they build the new place in Lincoln around the fireplace. It was the only thing left standing.
