 The Viking Longhouse combines ancient and current technology with hot water and cooking provided by a Rayburn |
 The Rayburn is however wood burning and the overhanging eves provide the ideal storage for the supply of logs |
 Entering the Longhouse takes the visitor back in time to the Viking era and provides residential facilities for the Ancient Technology Centre |
 The Longhouse facilities played an important role during the Open Weekend on 31st July and 1st August 2010 |
