PHOTO of TYPICAL MUD-AND-STUD COTTAGE


Withern Cottage, Skegness, Lincs, newly re-thatched in 2012.  The building is a mud-and-stud cottage which was moved from nearby Withern and rebuilt at the open-air museum (known as The Village) in 1980-1982.  It was the first mud-and-stud building to be properly repaired.
