F-G Complex Plan
![[ F-G Complex Plan, Hall F
Hall F was the largest building on the site, with a floor space of 1728 square feet. It had six rooms with a lean-to shed. There were three living rooms in a row I, II, and III, all with fireplaces. Room I was small and private. This is where the leader of the settlement resided. Rooms II and III were classical skálar {singular: skáli] with platforms along the side walls and a longfire between them.
Room IV was a kitchen. A large stone oven in the form of a double slate box covered with a mound of small stones stood in the southwestern corner. It had collapsed so the stones were strewn all over the firebox.
Room V was a large storage room. A large deep pit in the northeastern corner contained charcoal and a few burnt bones. It had either a big wooden vat that had burnt, or a cooking pit.
Room VII was discovered later than the other rooms, and it is not known where its door was. It was also for storage.
Room VI was a shed, open to the south. Post moulds in an uneven line and the imprint of a log are from a frame supporting a boat being repaired. The shed is almost 9 m long. What kind of boat do you think was repaired here?
A pit in the middle of the floor and through the eastern wall is modern. The soil from the pit and objects in it were dumped outside so that they ended up outside the building.
Hut G
Hut G was a small hut set into a slope. It had a fireplace by its southeastern wall. The profile shows that after its abandonment by the Norse, it had been used by later people.
