Half- Timbered Cottages

These 1/76th scale buildings were made to try out various construction techniques and materials. The design came from a series called "Making a Model Village" which can be freely downloaded, but I altered some of the details to suit my tastes.

With the exception of the roofs, which are a commercial moulding, they are made entirely from card and paper, and represent a style of building common in England in the 17th century.

In fact, I did not use them on the model railway, and they are incomplete - no gutters and downpipes, no television aerials, - and no dustbins !!
