A home gargoyle - Nancledra - 10Feb10

This is on the old millhouse roof, Nancledra. This building is now a private home. I thought it was rather 'neat'!
Dragon Acroterium, ridge end.
Gargoyle is a water chute outlet from a roof or valley gutter. Very often a feature of a tower/balcony or from a flying buttress.
 
Thanks, Sparky!

@Treeve: No doubt, when blue sky turneth to rain, water from the dragon's mouth doth drain!

'Acroterium'! That's a nice new word for me to learn! Thanks!
