56 CONSERVATION AREA STATEMENT - Conservation Area No7: FRAMPTON ON SEVERN Stone has been used rarely in Frampton, and then only on the very prestigious buildings; the church, the Court and the Manor Farm, and their associated buildings. The stone used is expensively imported, the local blue lias being too crumbly. Painted render is the widespread alternative to brick. The earlier cottages and smaller vernacular houses all tend to be rectangular in plan, generally one room deep, with single- storey lean- to extensions to the side or, more often, the rear, some with complete cat- slide roofs. By and large they are a storey and a half, with eaves dormers, some gabled, some with catslides. Thatched cottages also feature ‘eyebrow dormers’, a style in which the windows are incorporated within the roof covering. Stroud District Council
CONSERVATION AREA STATEMENT - Conservation Area No7: FRAMPTON ON SEVERN Most of the older cottages have a steep roof slope, usually around 40 degrees, reflecting the water shedding requirements of their original thatching. The steep pitches have also suited the needs of the clay tiles that were often superseded the thatch. Window frames in the timber framed buildings are now generally simple, straight- headed wooden casements, usually just four paned, though many with more. Some may be leaded. From the 18th century, timber framing and thatch was phased out and vernacular houses were largely brick built under clay tile roofs. A simple architectural style developed that lasted well into the 19th century. Like their predecessors, the later cottages generally have quite a wide frontage but are often only one room deep.
