Cambios

Party walls were commonly used to separate houses and swelling in concentrated settlements, and the charter towns are the prime examples. Thus, the houses were adjoining, creating small communal interior courtyards, and forming small neighbourhoods, streets and districts.

Information on Aurizberri and Burguete, the towns in Navarra, has been used as the example for this section. There, the towns are grouped together, but not adjacent, and there is a small space between them that is not less than half a metre and which is known as ''ertea'' in Basque and ''belena ''or ''corral ''(run or yard) in Spanish.
