The walls were made of clint or channel mixed with rushes or straw. It was called a mud cabin. There are plenty of these mud - walls standing in this district yet. Some had a bed in the kitchen; it was made like a box it was called a settle bed it was generally placed against the back wall; it served as a seat during the day. The fire used to be in a hole in the floor there was a barrel or a hole left in the roof for the smoke to go through. Some of these fire - places were open.
