‘The other apartments on this side of the house comprise the well-chamber at the far end and two other small rooms for menials. Crossing to the other side of the house, there are two smallish rooms, which for a time may have served as guest-chambers, but were subsequently bricked up and filled in solid as a precaution against floods. The tiny apartment next to them on the west was a latrine, from which a drain ran across the north side of the courtyard to a soak-pit in First Street, while in the wall of the latrine is the brick casing for a vertical pipe which descended from what was doubtless another latrine on the upper floor.’⁵
