  • One-room cottage, 16x12 feet, ~200 sq. ft.
  • Two-room cottage, 33x13 feet, ~430 sq. ft.
  • Long house, 50x15 feet, ~750 sq. ft. (At one end was a byre that was usually separated from the living part by a cross-passage. The byre housed farm animals or other agricultural goods such as grain or farming, brewing, or dairying equipment.)
  • Long house, large, 90x15 feet, ~1350 sq. ft.
