Rose Cottage

Rose Cottage is a house that was originally a farmhouse, likely dating from the late medieval period. It features a south wing that was partly rebuilt around 1880 and a rear wing to the north that was extended in the 18th century to serve as a kitchen. The building has a plastered timber frame with some decorative pargetting at the rear, and it is encased in red brick. The roofs are steeply pitched and covered with slate.

A tall red brick ridge stack with thatch weatherings is present, along with a cross wing that has a local gault brick stack and unfired bricks below the ridge. The house has one storey and an attic. The gable of the south cross wing features paired twelve-paned hung sash windows at both floor levels, set in segmental brick arches. There is a recessed six-panelled door located in the lobby entry position. Additionally, there is one ground floor three-light casement window and one two-light casement window, both in segmental brick arches, along with two gabled horizontal sliding sash dormer windows.

Inside, the details of the roof and timber frame are concealed by plaster. There is an ovolo moulded mantel beam above the inglenook hearth in the hall, which has been relined in modern brick.
