haycocks
Conical hay piles
Haycocks are conical piles of hay stacked in a field to dry before being stored in a barn.
The shape allows rain to run off while air circulates through.
The practice is largely historical in mechanized farming but persists in some traditional agriculture: The meadow was dotted with haycocks after the mowing.
