Unusual "pent roof" summerhouse design feature
The Clumber pent roof summerhouse is essentially a pent roof building with the roof sloping from front to back. However there is an additional 485mm (19") front canopy that opposes the pitch of the main roof. This is commonly known as a "dummy pitched roof". Adding the felt shingles to the roof canopy draws the eye and really makes it look special.
Asymmetrical roof design is more than just aesthetics
The "ridge" being offset towards the front of the building gives a great look to the building. It decieves the eye into thinking that the building is taller and therefore bigger than it actually is. The rear fascia height is lower than the front fascia height where you would normally expect them to be the same. Thus enabling the extra height to be at the front of the summerhouse where you need it most.
