Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Although occupied as a dwelling for a relatively short time, probably between the 1880s and 1920s, the blackhouse at no. 39, Arnol, Isle of Lewis, was modified many times. The original structure seems to have been constructed to a typical blackhouse pattern with adjoining barn, byre/dwelling and entrance. Both dwelling and entrance have been lengthened. The extension to the entrance proved unstable, collapsed and was blocked. The eastern end of the dwelling was extended in the early-twentieth century and a window inserted. Excavation of the interior revealed different floor surfaces and features. Sections through the floors and walls provided detailed information about construction methods of blackhouses. | |||||||||
