Description View of the first and second bays of the West elevation of the traditional cottage at 4 Balevullin. Stones can be seen hanging across the window opening, and above the door - these were attached by rope (laterly to wire netting) and used as weights to hold the thatching down. Originally they would have sat above the level of the wallhead. The thickness of the external wall to the North and the outward tilt of the chimney can also be appreciated in this photograph.
