 The present roof, replaced in the 1950s is constructed internally of massive tie-beams and a plastered ceiling, though the original was most likely a principal rafter roof similar to that of the third Bruton Parish Church.The roof beams are decorated with chamfer and lamb's tongue moldings.The present slate shingles are, of course, not the original roofing material which most likely was cedar shingles or clapboards painted or covered with tar.
