well i hardly need some welsh guy speaking on my behalf, but I must say you are
correct! i thought about adding a hole through the roof to allow the smoke to
escape, but later decided that the above door 'window' would probably work
better. the level of technology i am indeed going for is pre-chimney.
i've always been amazed that most 'medieval' construction are more likely early
renaissance (being ~1500) to super-early modern (~1600)[1]. and I thought some
early medieval constructions might be welcome (~1000).
and on the 2nd note of the insurmountable mr. Hendo, I was thinking in adding
two sheep to the mix. just for fun. when the wife's away. >:o)

[1] = academically speaking there only three post-rome eras. Medieval, lasting
from 800 - 1600, modern, 1600-1950, and post-modern 1950-2003. pre-medieval is
usually called 'antiquity'. however, this is only a purely academic measure,
and sometimes i find this timeline: medieval (800-1500), renaissance
(1500-1700), industrial (1700-1900), modern (1900-1950), post-modern (1950+).
and enough of the basic history lesson, for any most basely interested.
