Description
Rose Cottage is a house dating from the 16th or early 17th century. It is timber-framed and has a roughcast exterior with a steep-pitched thatched roof featuring decorative ridge detailing. The house is 1 1/2 storeys high and faces west, set back from the road. Originally comprising three cells, it features an internal chimney located a third of the way from the south end, and an external chimney on the north gable. The west front has no windows in the south bay on the right-hand side, but two eyebrow dormers are present over the central and north bays. A three-light casement window is located on the ground floor in the middle bay, and a half-glazed porch with small panes is in the north bay on the left-hand side. The south gable has a three-light casement window on the ground floor, with a half-glazed panelled door to the left. A two-light casement window is above this on the first floor. The rear of the building features two small ground floor windows. The interior showcases exposed timbers of a three-bay frame, including jowled posts and curved tension braces, alongside Jacobean panelling to the staircase. A wide fireplace has been blocked.
