Description
Rosedale is a house dating from around 1700 that was a Red Cow beer house by 1816 and became a private residence in the early 20th century. The front is made of brick, covered in roughcast with an impressed pattern of circles, and features a plastered wide soffit beneath the projecting front eaves of a steep old red tile roof. The house has a two-cell, internal-chimney, former lobby-entry plan and stands two storeys high with attics, facing south. At the rear, there are two gabled wings, also two storeys tall. The west front includes a plat-band and three first-floor windows arranged in a 3:2:3 light configuration with casements. The ground floor has a three-light window on the left, a canted bay on the right, and twin small circular windows where a former doorway was located. The entrance is now on the west side, and a narrow red brick chimney rises from the centre of the ridge. Inside, the house features exposed beams.
