Description

Rose Cottage is a pair of attached cottages that have been converted into a single house. It dates from the mid-19th century and has been extended and altered in the 20th century. The building is timber-framed and weatherboarded, with a roof made of handmade red and black tiles. It has a rectangular plan facing southwest and features a central stack.

At the rear right, there is a two-storey wing added in the 20th century, along with an apsidal conservatory. To the rear left, there is a 20th-century catslide extension that overhangs the ground floor and includes a gabled dormer. The house stands two storeys tall and has two 20th-century casement windows on each floor. The front elevation has a 20th-century halved door at the right end, which has a single pane and imitation hinges, while the equivalent doorway at the front left has been blocked. The stack is made of stock brick, and all other windows are also 20th-century casements.
