what a clever chap

RE: what a clever chap
My house is basically stone and clay. Slates are laid to form 2 parallel walls, clay is used as mortar, rubble and clay packed into the middle. The walls are at least 36" thick.

It seems crude, but it's been standing for 200+ years and shown no sign of falling down yet. I have made a concession to the modern age by having 90mm of external insulation fitted.
