The Decoster House

The Decoster House 

This model is of the Decoster house, a largely forgotten feature of the Waterloo battlefield. The house was over the road and a little way along to La Belle Alliance, where, no doubt, Monsieur Decoster was one of the regulars. 
As usual, this is a 15-18mm model. For best results, seal the sheets after printing and glue the walls at least on something like mounting board and fit the roof sections between the gables. Windows and doors are best cut out and the inset pieces used stuck to the inside of the mounting board to give depth to them. Brown sections on the roofs should be folded under as eaves and glued.
