Hiking
Oast houses litter the English landscape and you'll find them in tiny, historic villages or out by themselves in the landscape like these ones.
Their purpose was to dry hops for breweries and the buildings were split in two: a kiln at the bottom and a drying floor above. Today, they're notable in the countryside for their unique conical shapes.
