The lichen is lovely. When I see the beauty of a slate roof I often go to that ‘load bearing’ place. I would imagine them to be quite heavy. They are not feasible in my area where an added crushing load of 3 or 4 feet of snow would do a home in.
Nice photo!
Thanks for the feedback. Yes, not sure how much snow would be too much! They were built with heavy beams and struts probably on account of the heaviness of the slates.
