Details: 

A new oak roof on a listed stone barn.  The triangular space formed between the top of the collars of the sling brace trusses and the underside of the principal rafters was carved into a 'four-leafed-clover' shape.  A long sloping ridge joined the last truss to a small gable at one end due to the walls tapering at that end.

  • Two trusses erected
  • Silhouetted frame
  • Finished frame
