This field is found a bit further up the road from where I live. I wanted to show you today something different. In some of the fields here on the island you can find a room or two. Some of them use it on Sundays , they BBQ or make a 'fenkata' (cooking rabbit) others use it to store in it and others sleep there too on occasions. In this photo you can also see the famous 'hajt tas-sejjieh' the wall which is made my stacking uneven pieces of stone on top of each other.

This is a great photo! I like all the information too!
A lovely photo Dina.
We also had a small building like that at the back of our house.
The old guy who used to sell kerosene / (pitrolju in Maltese) used to sleep there and keep his horse and cart in there. The cart had a large tank on it and he used sell kerosene door to door.
I think 'hajt tas - sejjieh' are called 'rubble walls' in English.
I like these stone walls which separate the fields
we have some in the south
These stone walls remind me of Ireland, but with more sun here!
... and the stone walls even remind me of Sweden, of course with a different landscape around!
Really nice and interesting what you show!
cela fait tres paysage du sud de la France.
that made very landscape of the south of France.
Tanty, I do feel sorry for the rabbits too, infact I do not eat nor cook them.
Thanks all for your lovely comments.
I like your photo today and also your narrative about the rooms. Nice job.
I have 1 baby raccoon today and a pile of poop!

Another nice spot .. the clock is good by the way ;]
Interesting post. Are these walls built as 'fences' or are they the ruins of old buildings?
I think that grass clock is very unique.
We have 'dry'stoned walls here too and it must be quite an art to put them in place so that the wall does not fall down!
Nice photo again!
Susan, these walls are built as fences.
Martin, you are right to say it is an art.
