It was in the cornder of one of the fields.About five years ago they dug it out and the found alot of burnt stones and ashes in the middle of it. It was there the old people used to cook the meat for their dinner as the mannger was in that time.The used to redden the stones and lay the meat on top of it and cover it again and come to it about four hours later.
