Roofed projection (6)

I believe the answer is:

dormer

(Other definitions for dormer that I've seen before include "Window under gable on sloping roof" , "Upright window built out from a sloping roof" , "Type of window set in sloping roof" , "Window fitted vertically onto a sloping roof." , "Bungalow with a vertical window in a sloping roof" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
