Housing stock — High Street OX9 carries Welsh slate and handmade clay tile; the surrounding 1980s-2000s estates have concrete tile that's now approaching first-reroof age.
Local roofing challenge — South Oxfordshire District conservation officer requires colour-matched handmade clay for any High Street conservation-area reroof — Marley Acme is not accepted as a like-for-like substitute in Thame.
