Handmade Tiles for a Unique and Characterful Roof

It’s often the little details which add up and give buildings their unique aesthetic character. Something which on it’s own seems a small choice, but one which you’d really miss if a different decision had been made.

A case in point is these beautiful handmade Sahtas Terracotta Products clay bonnet hip tiles on a country house we’re building in Surrey. There’s nothing wrong with using hip ridge tiles, but the traditional swept form of these bonnet hips just add a certain something to an expertly tiled roof like this one.
