The cottage roof is covered with imperial red clay tiles manufactures by the Ludowici-Celadon Co. of Chicago.  Except for a few broken tiles, the roof is in good condition (Photo Nos. 155 - 158).  The flashing around chimneys appear to be in good condition.  All ridge tiles are in place.  Past examinations of the attic interiors shows no evidence of leaks.

Proposed Work

During Phase II replace broken tiles by experienced tile roofer during Phase I.  All work will meet guidance in "Preservation Brief 30: The Preservation of Historic Clay Tile Roofs."
