The palette

Cobblestone, andesite and stone for the rubble walls (mossy cobblestone near the ground), stone bricks and polished andesite for the quoins, string courses and slit surrounds, chiseled stone bricks over the openings; spruce planks and stripped dark oak logs for the hoarding, spruce for the stair, landing and fascia; deepslate tiles for the roof with stone for the hips and the eave course; dark oak planks, fences and a bell in the lantern; oxidized and weathered cut copper for its spire, a gold block and lightning rods for the vane.
