Lighting the basement.
Even a basement wall that is slightly protruding above the ground can be equipped with a typical window. It is enough to make an excavation next to it, brick it up, to get light, and in the right way, keeping in mind the lintel, carve a hole for the window. The bottom of the trench, finished with a layer of concrete should ensure good drainage of the collecting water to the circular drainage surrounding the basement wall. The top of the excavation is secured with a steel grate.
