Description

Rose Cottage is a 17th century cottage that has been extensively restored. It features a timber frame that is rendered on a brick sill, topped with a thatched roof made of reed and a ridge stack. The cottage is one storey high with an attic, and it includes two dormers, three windows, and a doorway, all of which were added in the 20th century.
