This photo came from Canada and shows a very sound roof covering done in a similar style to those seen across Europe . It is great to see these ancient crafts being applied expertly in the new world. I have seen the same type of construction in Vermont USA built by master craftsman Dan Snow assisted by Dieter Schneider the Swiss mason.

Norm is that a root cellar?
Dont know you should ask John Shaw-Rimmington.
That is ancient artistry! Piling up the wood to create a roof is indeed a genius idea that has improved over time. It's an innovative idea that we should be thankful of. That is a special roof, indeed! It must be nice to see one in person.
