Spindle by abandoned kaolin dumps close to Ledce

Abandoned area of former kaolin mines on the northern edge of Pilsen has been already overgrown by a forest, leafy one under the dumps and pinewood above it, on heaps of washed-out white sand. Not many traces of old mining remain except for the unsettled landscape itself. One of them is this spindle stuck into ground between the largest dump and ponds of caved-in adits.
