of thatched roofs for Norfolk UK and???? yep? that's what it is.
So I did some surfing and reading?? I'm impresses 20 - 30 years
life span and 7 for the ridge?? Wow.? In the UK where it rains
about 690 days a year?
They are more than a foot thick??? I'm thinking Fire.

It will be thatch, which is done with reeds. Norfolk in the UK
used to be reputed as the best thatch available in the UK. Put on
by a "Thatcher" which is a dying art but still pretty strong in
the UK. Thatchers would usually leave their trademark on any job
they done which in a lot of cases would be a small bird or animal
made out of thatch and left somewhere on the roof.
