Full Description

MY309 (NL55928374) Peat dryer.
Location: Ridge plateau.
Description: Subrectangular, 4.6 x 3.5 m, area marked by a line of stones still in position along the south-western side even though this whole area is subject to active erosion that has left the stonework on bare bedrock. The southern end is built up to form a facade while the rest of the perimeter is marked by scattered and displaced stonework.
