A tale of two roofs

Discussion in 'Restorations' started by jivedubbin, Jul 13, 2015.

  1. Our Devon roof is looking a bit tired a bit saggy and rubbing the gutters .
    I've been weighing up various repair options and talking it over with @PIE who told me of a late Devon top that was languishing behind a mates garage .so a trip to Shrewsbury today and I'm now the owner of a late Devon roof that although is in need some Tlc and adaptation will do very nicely.

    Ah-ha, well, I had a devon with the same roof. Ugly thing. I gave it away and fitted a dormobile.
    That new later one is much nicer. :thumbsup:
