' Sacks could contain potatoes and this could be a storage clamp. See Storage Clamps in Wikipedia. Just after the war when there were building restrictions, few farmers had frost free buildings for storing potatoes and root vegetables away from the light. They stored them outside in clamps, which were heaps of potatoes covered in straw and then covered with soil in such a way the rain water ran off. This appears to be one. '
