        farm buildings (stables)


Around here those are called poll-barns. They are usually constructed with
utility poles ( or similar ) a roof truss system, and corrugated/galvanized
metal sheets. They cover farm equipment, feed storage, and sometimes
animals.

And that is a pig pen.  But, according to some, also a pig sty.  An
enclosure rather than a building.

This time, I'd go sty, although pen would also be OK.

In common parlance that could be a sty or a pen.  However, I don't think
you'd map it as
building=sty (or even building=pen) because it's not a building.


The one's I've seen in farmyards have had a rudimentary roof in one
corner, with the rest being dirt or mud!

The bit of roof could be building=sty (a bit of a stretch, though).  I'd
be tempted to make it
building=roof.  Especially as that's how somebody might map it if seen
from the road but
no pigs were around at the time.

Don't you mean "pole barns?"
