Very little Saxon architecture has survived into present day Britain, because the Saxons tended to build mostly from timber, with an updated version of the iron age wattle-and-daub wall infill technique, but here in Romania, is one of several Saxon villages that have survived intact, more or less as they would have been, a thousand years or more ago.
Imagine what life in winter might have been like, especially in an area that was prone to regular flooding!
