I'm trying to picture it, sold it more than 20 years ago. Allegedly it

English cottage look to it.

Lathe and plaster everywhere with knob/tube wiring in the walls.

No, the living room had a wall with a gable at the far end, with a loft
behind at the top and bedrooms behind, underneath. Then at the other
end there was a gable built over a set of doors that led to the
entrance hall. I don't think there were any A-frame beams.


Can you remember what the roof was made of? Might it have been covered
with felt tiles - or somesuch - which would have been a lot lighter than
slates or concrete tiles?
