old that small but flourishing trees are growing in it, the
floors are switchbacks, it creaks at night like a tea clipper in
a gale. If at least two walls aren’t shored up with balks of
timber then it’s not a true witch’s cottage at all, but merelysaid Nanny indistinctly, spraying crumbs.“What are you eating?”“Fried egg and ketchup sandwich,” said Nanny happily.“You better get the cook to boil you, too,” said Magrat, rolling up her sleeves. “Go and see her.” She looked at the wound. “And see if she’s got any mouldy bread ...”The basic unit of wizardry is the Order or the College or, of course, the University.The basic unit of witchcraft is the witch, but the basic continuous unit, as has already been indicated, is the cottage.A witch’s cottage is a very specific architectural item. It is not exactly built, but put together over the years as the areas of repair join up, like a sock made entirely of dams.
