rickyard
Farm stack area
A rickyard is an area on a farm where ricks—large stacks of hay, straw, or grain—are stored.
The word is British and mostly historical, appearing in older rural contexts: The fire spread quickly through the rickyard.
American English favors terms like haystack or simply stack.
