It's a forum! Feel free! :)

Yes, I think that reflects my second post, the roof has been restored so the stonework might not be so good. Do you agree that corbellling needs bigger stones though?


I always to try feel free [ it's a little harder when the wankers are in power though! ] and its easier to corbel with bigger stones surely [ you can with smaller but it's about the weight as well isn't it? ], i think they nailed it at places like camster and maes howe [ knows how ] in the neolithic, and the stones in the other ia beehive hut you know well down here [ Bosporthennis ] are huge at the point the cobelling starts, this place doesn't have to many stones on the floor, so i don't know if it was taken apart for wall material or caved in on itself and then the stone taken away for wall material.
