Description
Rose Cottage is a cottage dating from around 1800, featuring a two-cell lobby-entrance plan. It is one storey high with attics and constructed from roughcast clay lump. The roof is hipped and thatched, adorned with two early 19th-century recessed dormers that have small-pane iron casements. The cottage has an axial chimney made of red brick, with twin diagonally-set square flues from the late 19th or early 20th century. There are also two early 19th-century small-pane casements. The entrance is marked by a gabled porch with plain tiles, which has a 20th-century boarded stable-type door.
