Description

The Little Rose Inn is a building located on Trumpington Street, dating from the 16th century for the main range, with a 17th-century north-east wing. The entire structure was altered in the 18th century, with additional modifications made later. It stands two storeys high with attics, featuring a timber-framed and plastered exterior, and tiled roofs. The street front has gables at either end, with a carriageway on the ground floor beneath the south gable, which is adorned with enriched bargeboards. The ground floor has modern brickwork between the windows and the carriageway, and there is a central rectangular chimney stack. The building showcases good structural timbering. The Little Rose Inn is part of a group that includes Nos 30, 31, 33 to 40.
