Ashley Down Homes and Their Roofs
The typical Ashley Down terrace has a slate roof, party walls either side and a rear addition. Lofts are modest, with small hatches and limited headroom at the eaves.
Loft conversions are popular, often with rear dormers, and foam may be hidden behind the finished ceilings or in the eaves cupboards.
On the steeper streets towards St Werburghs, houses step down the hill, so roof levels and access vary between neighbours.
What Shapes a Removal Job in Ashley Down
