Overhanging edge of a roof (5)

I believe the answer is:

eaves

(Other definitions for eaves that I've seen before include "Overhanging roof edges" , "Anything projecting" , "Section of roof" , "Overhang at edge of a roof" , "Part of a building's roof that overhangs the walls" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
