The "garden" in front of the large house is made of glue and basil for one crop, rosemary for the other; the firelay should be in the middle under the smokehole, but then you couldn't see it!
In the wider shot, the spot out the window straight across the road almost to the foot of the hill is where indications of a large house were found in the Murphy Site archaeological dig in the 1980's and early 90's, dated to around 2000 years ago. The components of the Murphy site are one of the most studied and analyzed Middle Woodland habitation areas, and we live smack in the middle of them. At any rate, if there was a large family group structure at Murphy 1 (see the graphic in the first link for "structure zone"), it might have looked somewhat like the model on the table in the foreground.
