Rose Cottage The Old Post Office

This is a farmhouse, now divided into two separate houses, The Old Post Office and Rose Cottage. It was built in the middle to late 18th century, with a further addition in the late 18th or early 19th century to form Rose Cottage on the right side. The farmhouse is constructed of red brick, with Rose Cottage having a colour-washed finish. It has a pantile roof. The original section, The Old Post Office, was designed with a two-room plan and a central entrance hall, with an outbuilding range extending to the rear on the left side. Rose Cottage consists of a single room and entrance hall, with a rear wing. The building is two storeys high with an attic, and has six windows on the first floor.

The Old Post Office has a symmetrical three-bay front. The entrance features a doorcase with panelled pilasters, reeded at the bottom, and entablature detailing including lozenge and paterae motifs, finishing with a dentilled broken pediment. A six-fielded-panel door sits beneath a moulded cornice and a radial fanlight within a fielded-panel surround. There are twelve-pane sash windows within flush wooden architraves, each with a projecting sill. Rose Cottage has a 20th-century glazed door within a 20th-century glazed timber porch on the right, and a sixteen-pane flush sash window to the left. It also features a moulded wooden eaves board and tumbled-in brick to the raised gables. There are end stacks on the left and an axial stack (previously an end stack) on the right. A 20th-century sliding attic sash window is present on the right gable, alongside a six-pane attic casement on the left gable.

Inside The Old Post Office, there is an open well staircase with a corniced handrail, plain newels, and column balusters, as well as exposed joists.
