Cadole is located between the two old windmills of Saint-Clément-sur-Guye. It is at the edge of the road, at the entrance of a field. It is a lean-to building with a single-slope roof. Its gables are parallel to the road and its gutter-facade overlooks the entrance to the field. This cadole was restored in July and August 2014 thanks to an initiation course in dry stone construction, organized jointly by Maisons Paysannes de France and the Association de sauvegarde et de mise en valeur de Saint-Clément-sur-Guye.

La Cadole is a lean-to building with a single-slope roof. Its gables are parallel to the road and its gutter-facade overlooks the entrance to the field. The plan of the interior is in the form of a trapezoidal quadrilateral (depth: 2.25 m, maximum width: 1.82 m, minimum width: 1.66 m). The walls are of regular thickness: between 0.55 m and 0.65 m. The entrance opens at the angle of the gutter-facade and the gable on the road side. It was closed by a wooden door, already disappeared in the 1970s. The gutter-façade is 1.65 m high, the opposite gutter 2.20 m. A large slab in one piece covers two thirds of the building, leaning on the gutter-façade and the gables. The slab, 7 to 8 cm thick, has its sewer grooved with a channel for the drainage of rainwater. We note the following arrangements: - a bench of projecting slabs embedded in the walls in the left part of the building when entering; - a look or a ventilation hole in the gable on the field side (formed by a frame of four slabs).
