S. Church. The other church was smaller but
seems to have been more richly ornamented.
Only the north wall (see photo) is standing
the plan and dimensions of the building
could not be determined from the ruins.
The exterior of the north wall shows a good
decorated portal and a line of round topped
windows with a string mould below and
another moulding carried over the top and sides.

Colonnades. The civil buildings (blank) of DeVogüé
are of a class noted before in various towns.
Two story colonnaded structures, too long and
not sufficient depth to be considered as
private houses. These were doubtless shops
corresponding to the later bazaars of the east.

They are here mostly all of a single
design, the lower colonnade consisting of
rectangular piers with ornamented caps
and above having true columnar
supports with carved panels between them.
