β | The east wing is laid out as a typical three bay | + | The east wing is laid out as a typical three bay cottage, with the byre at the south end divided from the rest of the building by a wattle and daub wall. The center bay is the hall, with a central hearth; the north bay is the pantry/buttery below, and a loft above. An interior wall divides the west and east wings, with a single door opening into the hall. |
Three short wicker walls divide the byre into four stalls, in one of which is stored a wheelbarrow, three brooms, two buckets, and several empty barrels of various sizes. The other three stalls have simple wooden feed-bins. The floors of the stalls are thick with mud and manure; the east wing reeks of it. Stored on planks across the byre's roof beams are some of the miller's food supply, broken tools or furniture, some bits of lumber, and other items. A crude ladder leads from the hall up to this dim, dusty loft. | Three short wicker walls divide the byre into four stalls, in one of which is stored a wheelbarrow, three brooms, two buckets, and several empty barrels of various sizes.
