Full Description

SU 171:
Orientated from south south-east to north north-west this house measures 13.2 x 7.1 metres and is constructed of stone walls with earthen cores. It has apsoidal ends and opposing entrances located towards the northern end of the western and eastern walls. This structure has been systematically dismantled.
Interpretation: This house forms part of Baile I, and has been systematically dismantled to provide building matrials for another house, probably SU 165.
