Gosto muito deste monumento ao sobreiro Alentejano, mais ainda por terem sido utilizados ferros e ferramentas que já estavam fora do uso para que foram concebidos. Se tudo fosse assim aproveitado ou reciclado, nós e o Mundo estariamos melhor.
(Wind Rose) is a graphic tool used by meteorologists to give a succinct view of how wind speed and direction are typically distributed at a particular location. Presented in a circular format, the wind rose shows the frequency of winds blowing from particular directions. The length of each "spoke" around the circle is related to the frequency that the wind blows from a particular direction per unit time. Each concentric circle represents a different frequency, emanating from zero at the center to increasing frequencies at the outer circles. A wind rose plot may contain additional information, in that each spoke is broken down into color-coded bands that show wind speed ranges. Wind roses typically use 16 cardinal directions, such as north (N), NNE, NE, etc., although they may be subdivided into as many as 32 directions.

Trata-se da Ermida Nª Srª das Vitórias mas mais conhecida como Ermida José do Canto (seu proprietário).
