This is a long partially collapsed structure with an iron or steel sheeted roof.Here the Turf was laid out for drying.You can still see the wires that run back and forth along the whole length of the shed. As far as I know the turf wasn’t used for fuel like in Ireland but may have been used for roofing and the like. I’ll have to find more .
This shot was taken using the built-in flash on the D800. Keen eyes will notice the lens shadow from the 16.35 mm I was using at the time.

We stopped for coffee by an old abandoned turf drying shed part of what may have been a hand haul rail system was still visible.

This was shot on Rollei RPX 100 which I stand developed in Adox Adonal 1:100 for 60 minutes @20°C Inversions for the first minute then 1 at the half-way point.

Taking A Break.

After a while we took a break in the spring sunshine. We were actually sitting in front of an abandoned Turf drying shed but more of that tomorrow.

Last weekend I went on a long walk with two mates and their dogs. I borrowed one of them to tow me around for most of the day. A fun experience for us both, I hope. I do miss having my own dog as growing up we always had one.
