Rose Cottage

Rose Cottage is a cottage built around 1840, with a minor extension added in the late 19th century. It is constructed of buff coloured brick laid in Flemish bond, featuring painted dressings, gable chimneys, and a plain tile roof. The building has a single depth L-plan with a lean-to service range at the rear, which is covered by a cat slide roof.

The front elevation faces south and has two storeys and two bays. The central doorway is enclosed by a late 19th-century single-storey gabled porch, which has a four-panel door beneath a wedge lintel. On either side of the doorway are stacked glazing bar sash windows with eight over eight panes, and the sashes do not have horns. The openings feature wedge lintels and shallow projecting cills. A plaque above the porch ridge reads "Rose Cottage." The east gable shows the integral rear lean-to and extended roof slope, with a single light window on the ground floor and a two-light horizontal sliding sash window on the first floor, each light containing six panes.

Inside, there is an entrance lobby with main ground floor rooms on either side and a staircase rising from the lobby. The right-hand room contains 19th-century cupboards with panelled doors flanking a 20th-century tiled hearth with a contemporary range. The left-hand room has a 19th-century hearth with tiled cheeks and a marbled surround. The rear service room within the lean-to includes a pantry, slop stone, copper, and a small hob grate range beneath a shallow segmental arch. There is a four-panelled door leading to the main house and plank doors to the rear lean-to. This small, largely unaltered early 19th-century dwelling showcases the continuing influence of local vernacular building traditions on standardized pattern book designs.
