That is gorgeous - talk about enduring materials. Does look like slate

Here is a better picture of roof.
I could not tell if it is slate.
I don't think it is slate but the stone
Weathering is beautiful!
The sidewalks were very big cut stone.
The bricks in the sidewalk and
Buildings are cut stone. Almost
Like a red granite. Granite is all over
North Carolina .
And John you are correct about the
Trees. They are very very big here.
And back then probably even bigger.

Old Salem village in
Winston Salem, North Carolina
Moravian houses built 1766 to late 1700's. They are currently lived in by
Private residence.
The roof shingles look like cut stone.
Does anyone know what material
The roof shingles on these houses
Could be made out of?
