Roofs and bargeboards (the boards that trim the roof edge) can add a lot of period detail to a model building or dolls house. Victorian buildings often had roof ridge and bargeboard details.
Roofs on Model Buildings can be made Distinctive with Period Detail
Roofs on model buildings can be detailed with patterned tiles on the roof, or with specialized roof ridge tiles. Bargeboards can be elaborate or plain.
Roof ridge tiles and distinctive barge boards create interest on this flint faced home in Lewes UK.
