The footpaths and roads within the village wind and wander among the [[ALVATIA:_Cottage_Styles|cottages]], which are placed seemingly at random. A few shallow ditches run through the village towards the [[ALVATIA:_Ingsby_-_River_Ive|Ive]].

A couple of the peasant’s homes have chimneys, but most have just a ragged hole in the ridge of the roof to let smoke out. Low wattle or picket fences surround small gardens, or crofts, around each cottage. Some of the crofts contain fruit trees, manure piles, hayricks, chicken coops, dovecotes, small pens, or beehives. There are nearly three dozen [[ALVATIA:_Cottage_Styles|cottages]]. |

Within a low stone wall south of the shrine is the cemetery. |
Southeast of the village is the sturdy wooden [[ALVATIA:_Ingsby_-_Garner_Barn|garner barn]], 96 feet long and 36 feet wide. The roof eaves come within a few feet of the ground, and each end has a pair of large doors. | Southeast of the village is the sturdy wooden [[ALVATIA:_Ingsby_-_Garner_Barn|garner barn]], 96 feet long and 36 feet wide.

The millrace turns the undershot wheel of the [[ALVATIA:_Ingsby_-_Mill|mill]], and then rejoins the Ive below the weir. The [[ALVATIA:_Ingsby_-_Mill|mill]] itself is a bit more sturdily constructed than the peasant huts. |
Just west of the [[ALVATIA:_Ingsby_-_Green|green]] is the [[ALVATIA:_Ingsby_-_Inn|inn]], a large thatched building. Several small sheds and pens face into the innyard. A painted wooden sign, depicting two hard-to-identify animals butting heads, hangs from a pole over the front door of the [[ALVATIA:_Ingsby_-_Inn|inn]]. | Just west of the [[ALVATIA:_Ingsby_-_Green|green]] is the [[ALVATIA:_Ingsby_-_Inn|inn]], a large thatched building.
