Notes

General Note:
Lying so close to the epicentre of the 12 May aftershock, this relatively large house has suffered badly. Though the façade has been cement-plastered, which protects it against the elements and does away with the need to plaster with mud regularly, the walls are made of stone and mud mortar, and this made them vulernable to the earthquake.
