Not a clue I will try and find out. Built a long time ago the tree on left has grown up and the door won't open. If it was built before the trees it could be a hide for looking at wildlife ?What is or was this elevated barn(?) / shelter(?) for?

Rollmop wrapped around a pickle. Always a jar in the fridge. Wife says I can only eat those 6 hours before we go to bed.I never liked the look of rollmop herring all my life . On a ship 4 years ago they were on the salad server every day two different kinds. 2 inch square half inch thick absolutely lovely had a piece on the side every night. They stocked up on food in Namibia before I joined very cheap there for food. I only acquired a taste for Salmon about 3 years ago . You wouldn't think I was a Fisherman for 15 years eh.
I sometimes get a John Dory and bake it in oven as it is ,wife don't like it winking at her . My neighbour is the Skipper of Eternal Light a Fraserburgh registered boat. He fishes for Scallops so I get a bag of 50 from him and any by catch gets taken home. Lemon sole and Dover sole lovely stuff.Rollmop wrapped around a pickle. Always a jar in the fridge.

“…taste for salmon 4 years ago”? …were you attacked by a lobster or something?
My wife would shiver when I tell her I would eat the eyes of most fish and most everything (except the shell) on a lobster. It’s a maritime’r thing.
There is an old building about twenty metres away which was once a sawmill. The sawdust went in to that shack maybe through a chute or pipe . Then a trailer would reverse under it and sawdust emptied in to it and taken away. I've cycled through that woods for nearly 40 years and never noticed it through the trees it just caught my eye today. Every days a school day remember.What is or was this elevated barn(?) / shelter(?) for?
Sorry for OT. Question to the fisherman who may know. When fishing soles from the beach at the dutch Northsea coast I catched some with dark brown spots on the bottom side. I though it might have to do with the lumps of oil sometimes floating to the beach, what might be wrong.I sometimes get a John Dory and bake it in oven as it is ,wife don't like it winking at her .

I would eat any fishIt had the shits ....
Plaice and/or flounder.What kind of sole is it ? . There are lots of Flat fish which are not called sole eg witch , Megram. Plaice there may be others . Sole fish I know of Lemon sole ,Dover sole .
I was looking for a explanation for the dark spots on this (blind) side of the fish, that had been in the skin only, not the flesh.That's a Plaice in pic. Flounder in UK would mean any flat fish we would also call them Flukes . The brown spots could be only on the skin so remove that. If on flesh I would be wary. Enjoy
