   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   Some of the old houses were made with "scraws" and thatched with sedge. There were no windows in those sod houses and the door was about two feet high and one foot wide. Those houses had not any room, only a kitchen. More of them were made from stone with no mortar or lime. Those containted but a room and a kitchen. The windows were very small and had four panes of glass each about the size of the palm of your hand. There used to be a bag put over them at night.
   Those houses were usually built in hollows. They were put there as they thought they would be sheltered from all winter storms. Instead of that when the storm came those who were in the hollows got more than those who were on the tops of the hills.
   The thatch was got from cíb and sedge.
