     The Loughlians are beginning to hit a breakthrough in building. Realising the mistakes of the past, the citizens of Loughley have considered wood a flammable and unsafe building material. Now, the hard new substance they had discovered (they decided to name it brick) became the number one choice for building. Two new structures were built to accomadate the high demand: a clay mine (seen to the top right) and a clay firing stove (seen to the left).

     The clay furnace was the first building with walls built entirely out of bricks; a large achievement for the Loughlians. It was strategically place far away from any of the wooden buildings to prevent another fire. The roof originally was to be made of sticks, but instead was made of dried pelts to prevent flaming pieces of wood landing on the people. The clay mine was basically a pit with walls around it to prevent people from falling in and sustaining injuries, a very smart move. The people of Loughley had a large argument as to where they should put it. Some wanted it near the farm, others said to near the mountain. Both sides though there were large quantities of clay in their chosen positions. Eventually it was settled the mountain was better. The citizens of Loughley began to wonder whether they should have someone in a high position to decide these things...

  

     The Loughlians also built another farm to feed a growing population (seen in the middle), an animal pen near the old farm, and an area to store rather large logs for fire (above the clay furnace), or as supports for the new brick buildings. This was indeed a great time in Loughley's architectural history, which the Loughlians fittingly labeled the "Brick Boom."
