More model informationA crib hut is a place for the workers to shelter whilst eating their “crib” or lunch.
This crib hut is a simple structure of granite blocks held together with a basic earth mortar, with a door, one window and a fireplace. The lintels above the window and fireplace are made from pieces of track. No evidence was found of a roof, eg. slate or wood, so it might be that the building was roofed with a sheet of tin which was taken for use elsewhere once the hut was no longer in use. It is possible that the building was erected with little advance planning using the raw materials found in the immediate vicinity.
