Abstract
A plurality of spaced brackets each has mutually perpendicular first and second legs with a lip upstanding from the end of one of the legs. A third leg extends from the upstanding second leg parallel to the first leg and overhangs the first leg. A bracket mounting flange extends from the end of the third leg for securing the bracket to the face of a fascia board, the first, second and third legs being beneath the soffit region. The lip and legs are so dimensioned and spaced to releaseably secure a standard K-gutter thereto without additional fasteners. The gutter is partially under the soffit. A sheet layer has an edge beneath the shingles and curves around in front of and below the fascia above the gutter mouth forming a relatively small entrance region with the gutter. The apex of the curve extends beyond the gutter so that debris carried by water run off falls to the ground while the run off flows around the layer into the gutter.
