Can anyone advise about two metal plates I've found next to an old track/road in Belgium. They are about 1.5 meters long with a series of circular holes in them and made from a ridged steel design. The ends have slight returns/holes to allow for them to be linked together. They are slightly hidden in undergrowth next to where the track goes down a hill, making the road become hidden from surrounding farmland. There is a large amount of heavy metal pieces in the area/fields surrounding these plates, which I don't think comes from farm equipment. The closest reference I've found so far on the web is the sand plates used by the LRDG in the desert for traction under the vehicles tyres. I'd be interested to know if these are British or other WW2 forces equipment...
