    Ah, the "long low hut, full of long low people", as it was described in
    a rather fine documentary I have on cassette (!) somewhere, made by BBC
    Essex in their early days.

    Reminds me of Ken Dodd's derivation of the word 'bungalow'.

    "They build a low house and bung a low roof on it".
