Description
Rose Cottage is an 18th-century house with alterations made in the mid-to-late 19th century. It is constructed of squared coursed sandstone with ashlar dressings, and has a slate roof with gable chimneys. The house has a double-depth plan.
The south facade has three bays, with two single-storey bay windows on the ground floor, each with slated roofs and two single-pane sash windows. The first-floor windows above are also sash windows without glazing bars, set within plain stone surrounds. The central bay features a small 18th-century window surround with an elliptical head and architrave with edge-roll moulding. A central single-storey sandstone ashlar porch has a coved cornice and a blocking course with ball finials.
Attached to the left is a single-storey outbuilding with a stone slate roof. It partially covers the east gable wall of the house, which has windows with stone surrounds and flat-faced mullions, arranged as three lights on the ground floor, two large lights to the first floor, and two lights to the attic. A six-panel flush door, in a plain surround, is located on the ground floor to the right, near the outbuilding; above it is a flat sandstone slab forming a canopy.
The interior was not fully inspected. At the time of survey in March 1992, the house was derelict with most of the timber floors collapsed.
