Would describing it as a traditional rafter and purlin construction
help to differentiate it from the prefabricated trussed roof designs
commonly found in modern dwellings? Also do you think it would add any
value to put a hip on one end? That would allow jack rafters to be
identified too. Perhaps also locate and identify fascia and barge
boards together with tilting fillets. Just a thought.
