FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the decorative plate main body 10 before the water stop member 40 is attached, as seen from the outside of the water stop member attachment side. As shown in FIG. 6, the decorative plate main body 10 is formed by bending a single sheet metal. As described above, in the decorative plate main body 10, the first placing portion 27 is located at the lower end portion of the first wall portion 17 of one of the two first and second wall portions 17 and 18 orthogonal to each other. It is connected orthogonally to one wall portion 17 , and the second mounting portion 28 is connected to the lower end portion of the other second wall portion 18 so as to be orthogonal to the second wall portion 18 . Therefore, since the decorative plate main body 10 is formed by bending a single sheet metal, the notch 61 is always formed between the first mounting portion 27 and the second mounting portion 28 . 2 and 6, the notch covering portion 46 is arranged at a position to cover the notch 61 from the inside, and the notch 61 covers the notch when the decorative plate 1 is viewed from the front on the water stop member 40 side. It is rendered invisible by the portion 46 . As shown in FIG. 2, in this embodiment, the decorative plate 1 is substantially symmetrical with respect to a plane including the shared edge 25 and the tip of the notch covering portion 46. As shown in FIG. However, the plaque may have a structure in which there is no plane that allows it to be substantially symmetrical.

A water stop member 40 covering the upper part is provided.

Therefore, since the roof-side opening of the notch 61 formed at the lower side of the corner of the decorative plate main body 10 can be covered with the water stop member 40, the rainwater that has flowed down along the valley 97 is prevented from passing through the opening to the outside. can be almost prevented from leaking out. Therefore, rainwater can be efficiently stored in the gutter, and can be efficiently drained to a drainpipe or the like through the downspout.

Furthermore, since the notch 61 formed at the lower side of the corner of the decorative plate main body 10 is covered with the water stop member 40, the notch 61 becomes difficult to see. Therefore, the decorative plate 1 can be made excellent in appearance.

Also, the decorative plate main body 10 may be formed by bending one sheet metal.

According to the above configuration, the decorative plate main body 10 is formed by bending one sheet metal, so that the decorative plate main body 10 can be formed easily and inexpensively.
