02 Field note

How the room is composed

layout
The domestic hall occupies the uphill end and steps down toward the byre, with hearth, sleeping, storage, and animal zones arranged along one axis.
materials
Rubble stone, lime, oak crucks, reed or straw thatch, flagstone, wool, iron, and timber form a compact house-and-byre enclosure.
furniture
An oak settle, trestle table, stools, chests, sleeping bench, and work implements cluster around the hearth while preserving the longitudinal passage.
lighting
Narrow openings and the doorway admit rain-softened Welsh light, balanced by low firelight that reveals the cruck frame and rough masonry.
decoration
Wool blankets, carved chests, pottery, iron tools, and limewashed patches lend quiet warmth without disguising the working agricultural structure.
