This early 16 century house is a listed building in La Charité sur Loire, 200 kilometres to our east. We've just had a few days away staying nearby at the chateau owned by some new Aussie friends.

Before becoming a private home this building was probably a shop.  The name translates as 'the clog maker's house'.

Interesting design. Is that a tree growing from the roof or a weather vane??

It sure looks like a tree.

Definitely a wind vane. I checked the original photo. No idea what it's meant to be, though.
