Cottage weathervane questions
Where can I fit a cottage weathervane?
Sheds, garages, gazebos, workshops, summerhouses, fence posts and smaller homes. They’re proportioned for buildings where a full-size farmhouse weathervane would look too big.
Which bracket do I need?
The 5″ eave bracket fixes to a wall, fascia or gable end. The post bracket fixes to the top of a fence or gazebo post. You get one of these free, whichever you choose. A roof mount straddles a pitched ridge, and a garden pole stands in a lawn or border.
Does polished copper stay shiny?
Not forever. Outdoors it softens to a warm brown and, over the years, to a green verdigris. A clear lacquer slows this down but won’t stop it. If you want the aged look from day one, choose the verdigris finish.
How do I choose the right size?
Compare the height above with your roofline and think about where you’ll see it from. Or send us a photo of your building and we’ll suggest a size.
How much is delivery?
UK mainland delivery (excluding the Highlands and islands) is free on orders of £50 or more, so every cottage weathervane ships free to the UK mainland.
