I’ll have to look into regional historical societies. The county wide historical group has not been keen on allowing access to properties without a justified end goal other then “3D model”.

Which to be fair is a step I’ve still yet to figure out other then having models hosted on sketchfab.

I’m starting to visit in person farmer markets that exist on land with over 80+ year old histories and structures.

The personal educational avenue is another great option I haven’t considered. I’ll keep this in mind.

Here is a 3D model of a carriage house built in the late 1800s that I processed from drone photography. https://skfb.ly/oW8v7

This was from a public park so no permission was needed.
