What have you done today with your Austin Seven
Hi John

Off Sevens a bit but may interest some. Sheet corrugated iron roofs have always been and are still popular here. In the dry areas have lasted over 100 years. Iron came from Oz. Possibly in UK the acid rain in many parts discouraged. My grandfather was a traditonal English lead worker plumber and he loathed them , esp during the Depression when very extensively patched. Called it fowl house plumbing. Scaffolding rules and hourly rates now lead to complete replacements instead of patching. .
