Upper Normandy Farmhouses
Like in many other French regions, Upper Normandy’s traditional farmhouses are often made of wood, stone or brick.
Upper Normandy farmhouses were foremost built as farm dwellings, and then often converted into homes. These farmhouses generally have a courtyard and many outbuildings like barns, stables, cowshed. The outbuildings are living proof of their agricultural usage in years gone by.
Sometimes a cellar and wine warehouse accompany the house. The roofs are often steep due to the coastal climate, as much as 45 degrees in some parts.
