 pre modern house
House with small windows, barren apple or damson trees in front. (Steady increase in window size actually very much a 20th century phenomenon.) The small plum colored sign over the door indicates that the house is fire insured. Somewhat bleak.

 odd houses
'Coat of many colors' roof. A well established custom. In essence: why buy a new shirt when only the elbows are threadbare. (Lower roof tiles have to carry more water than the higher ones, so they are replaced preferentially. There is a reason for everything - even if we have to fabricate one.) Additional features: Square mini dish, Astra reception only (incidentally, also an excuse for a permanently closed shutter). The extension is probably recent, the wet seams of the hollow cinder blocks are still visible. Add on blinds with external slat boxes.
|  fakir barn
Fakir barn. May produce a slight sensation of vertigo on first sighting. Say a floating fakir with 10 cm gaps between all joints. Denouement: The actual force lines (timber beams in the occurrence) are covered with non weight bearing flag stones. Outback licence.
