It is called the Settle Bed and is used as a seat in the day time. There is a dresser that holds all the delph, and wooden dishes. There is always an old mug on the dresser that holds all the pennies. Every Saturday the dresser is scrubbed and also the dishes.

The house is built with mud and thatched with wheaten straw. The floor is made of clay.
