I fired 2 batches of barrel roof tiles to form the roof of the hut built in the previous episode. Then I cut the purlins for the roof and plastered them onto the gable end walls. The tiles were then put in place to start forming the roof. So far the walls are suporting the weight of the roof and tiles satisfactorily. Though time consuming to build, huts with tiled roofs are more durable than thatched huts and last much longer in wet environments.
