Description
Rosehill Cottage is a small house from the mid-18th century, believed to be dated 1761, that has undergone some alterations. It features white-painted brick and a stone slate roof, with a double-depth, double-fronted layout. The building is two storeys high with an attic and has a symmetrical façade with two windows. On the ground floor, there is a central doorway with a plain surround, flanked by bowed oriel windows that were added around 1956, all beneath a 20th-century cornice. The first floor has 12-pane sash windows with exposed boxes and raised sills. The left gable includes a small attic window, and there are gable chimneys. Inside, although altered, the attic retains an upper-cruck roof truss.
