Cross Gabled Roofing
A cross gabled roof has additional sections or wings crossing perpendicular to the main section, meeting in a valley, each with its own peaked or gabled facade. A normal gabled house is a simple rectangle, and a cross gable roof allows a more complex shape and therefore a more complex layout.
Often, the main part of a house will have a gabled roof while the cross gabled roof on the extended portion will be lower than the main part. An example of this type of architecture is the Gothic Revival style that was popular in the United States between 1855 and 1870.
Characterized by an overall picturesque cottage appearance, this style home was built with a steeply pitched (gabled) roof with at least one cross gable
