The purpose of this study is to clarify the differences of the spatial structures between the houses which have maintained homestead woodland and the houses which have lost it. In order to discuss the differences, the space constitution of individual housing lot with green cover ratio and building area ratio was examined using aerial photographs and through field investigation. Then, following findings were obtained. The former houses maintained woodland behind their houses after the additional construction of the buildings was completed. Such houses tend to have the characteristic tree constitution other than the homestead woodland. On the other hand, the latter houses lost woodland behind their houses after the additional construction of the buildings was completed. Such houses tend not to have the characteristic tree constitution.
