"Butterfly roofed houses" I knew I hadn't made it up! https://www.friendsaction.co.uk/locations/allerdene-estate interesting take on the estate and houses in the link. "Relatively poor quality".
This one is really interesting. Lots about the different designs of houses in Gateshead. Butterfly houses appear to have felt covered roofs. https://www.bisfhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/housing_gateshead.pdf What an excellent resource, well done Gateshead Council :-)
I'm sure you can find more about them if you look up butterfly roof etc. Some vague memories of why I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole coming back!
What a fabulous thread. An open minded, sensible OP
and an absolute gem of a reply with local knowledge.

I see nothing wrong with the person who owns the house putting in whatever features please them, but doing that and then trying to get someone else to pay for their weird taste a few months later, deserves a big raspberry.Murphybear wrote: »We lived in a house with similar doors, they looked stunning.
