shingle siding

Wooden exterior scales

Shingle siding is an exterior wall covering made of overlapping shingles—thin, tapered pieces of wood, cedar, or composite material.

The shingles are arranged in rows with staggered joints, creating a layered, textured appearance common on Cape Cod and craftsman-style homes: The cottage had weathered gray shingle siding.

Also called shingle cladding.
