Proposal
A building or a set of buildings placed outside any village/hamlet, where sheep are tended during the summer. Empty in the winter.
Rationale
In Romanian hiking maps, shepherd's huts are marked with a specific symbol (triangle on top of circle) since they can both help and hinder hikers: help by offering shelter, water (all year) and food (when inhabited) and hinder through the presence of guard dogs, which can attack hikers, especially if alone/in a small group

Tagging
- Main tag - building
- building = shepherd's hut
- abandoned = yes/no
- amenity = shelter
- drinking_water = yes/no/conditional
- I'd also like tags about general numbers and ferocity of dogs - this information is often discussed in Romanian-language hiking forums.
Applies to
Nodes, areas
Rendering
Rectangular triangle placed on top of a circle, looking a bit like a cartoon house.
