Full Description
MY273 (NL55848374) Peat dryer.
Location: Upper ridge plateau.
Description: Rectangular, 4.5 x 2.6 m, very slight mound edged in places with placed stones. Front south edge may have been originally a stone facade, but active erosion has dissolved much of the peat soil along this edge displacing stones. The opposite end has no retaining stones and merges into the hillside.
