Now to explain the differences: What you are calling a hip roof is
known to me as a cottage style roof. I don't recall hearing the Gambrel
name before. Your Gambrel is what I am calling a "hip roof". Even the
lumber yards around here use the term "hip roof" for the double sloped
roof.  Your gable roof appears to be the same as ours
Kinda of makes it hard to explain things sometimes doesn't it?
