Description
Rose Cottages is a house, now divided into two homes, dating from the early 18th century. It has been altered and divided in the 19th century. The building features chequered red brick with black headers and a steeply pitched slate roof. It stands two storeys high with attics and has a two-cells, end chimneys plan. The house is set back slightly from the road, facing west at the corner with Mill Lane. It includes a former rear stair tower flanked by 19th-century two-storey outshuts under an extended rear roof slope at a lower pitch. There are internal gable chimneys at both the north and south ends.
The west front has a plat band and a flat painted soffit to the projecting front eaves, supported by brick corbels at each end. The symmetrical front features two windows on each floor and now has two doors in the middle. There are two box dormers on the roof slope with casements. The wide recessed sash windows have 8/8 panes, with lintel heads on the first floor and flat gauged arched heads on the ground floor. The doors are plank style. The original rear stair tower also has a plat band and two casement windows.
