Slate on remodelled structures (4,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lean tos

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'structures' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'slate on remodelled' is the wordplay.
'remodelled' is an anagram indicator.
'slate'+'on'='slateon'
'slateon' with letters rearranged gives 'LEAN-TOS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for lean tos that I've seen before include "sheds" , "outbuildings" , "Building extensions" .)
