Full Description

SU 165:
The walls of this house stand to between 3 and 5 courses high and are constructed of stone and earth. The house is orientated from south-west to north-east and measures 13.2 x 7.1 metres. It has square ends, a single entrance towards the southern end of the south-east wall and no internal features that could be seen.
Interpretation: This house shows none of the typical signs of dismantling suggesting it marks the last phase of occupation in this Baile prior to abandonment.
