Thatched Roof Thursday #6 - Dunchurch

This is a timber framed thatched cottage dating from the 17th Century. It is a Grade II Listed building and the design includes that interesting thatched pheasant (my guess) on top. There have been a number of additions and alterations each century to this cottage but this is how it looks from the front today.

Happy Thanksgiving to my friends and family in USA. Have a great day!
