I believe the answer is:

eaves

(Other definitions for eaves that I've seen before include "Overhanging edge of roof" , "Overhang at edge of a roof" , "Roof's overhang" , "Roof projection" , "Overhanging part of roof" .)

I've seen this clue in The Chronicle of Higher Education and the Penny Press.
