Long ago the people thatched houses with spars and reed or straw. They thatched in bays. They usually made bays from 21 to 24 inches wide. The spars were put in a straight line and were called stretchers. They had other spars to drive down through the thatch to hold the stretchers. They usually put twenty-one lines of spars from top to bottom.- Collector
