The full report of a research project, undertaken by the University of Southampton, investigates the impact that climate change will have on roofs covering the existing stock of buildings across the UK. It was commissioned by the NFRC Charitable Trust under the Trust’s ‘Sustainability’ charitable aim.
The origins of vernacular valley details began in much the same way as the rest of the roofs and buildings are formed as ways to overcome common problems with the limited resources that were available at the time of construction.
