walshie 2,804 Posted October 23, 2023 Report Share Posted October 23, 2023 I found this under a load of bramble in a field about 10ft from a stream. It's a hoop of approx 3/8" steel with a lump of angle iron welded to the top. It's about knee height and about 2.5-3ft wide. I tried pulling it out but it's in solid. About 2" below the surface each leg has a round hinge and pin that allows it to move backwards or forwards but not side to side and under the hinge appears to be more steel rod going straight down. I don't know how far as I didn't have any digging tools with me. Any ideas? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

paulus 26 Posted October 24, 2023 Report Share Posted October 24, 2023 If its in solid it may be a ground Anchor for the straining wire used to hold up sheep netting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
