Description
Rose Cottage is a house, originally comprising a house and adjoining outbuildings, dating to the early 18th century with alterations in the early 19th century, late 19th century, and 20th century. The construction uses dressed limestone, coursed and squared ironstone with ashlar dressings, and has natural and artificial slate roofs. The building includes three stone gable stacks and one brick ridge stack. The main front is two storeys plus garrets, featuring three tall glazing bar sash windows on the ground floor, and three smaller, similar windows above. The east side has a gabled wing to the left, accompanied by a lean-to addition with a crenellated parapet. To the right is a half-glazed door, flanked to the left by an unglazed opening, both with multiple keystoned heads. Above the door is a glazing bar sash window. Further above, to the left, is a small square casement window to the garret. The rear has a full-width lean-to addition with three leaded casements. A gabled dormer was added in 1986. A two-storey rear wing, six bays wide, presents irregular fenestration with 19th-century casements and sliding sash windows.
