eld - rebuilt

Look closely at the front of this house - the two semi-circular arches suggest that it has been rebuilt from a hemmel.
A hemmel is a Northumberland farm building, usually single story, with arches giving access to the sheltered area inside. Frequently used for implements or for hay / winter feed / lambing. Sometimes located out in the fields, rather than in the main farmyard. {Byres are for the animals}
