Description
Rosemount is an early 17th-century house with a three-cell plan, featuring one storey and attics. The building is timber-framed and roughcast, topped with a thatched roof that has a 18th/19th-century axial chimney made of red brick. It includes one eyebrow dormer with a small-pane casement, two 19th-century small-pane casements, and one 20th-century casement with large panes. There are two boarded entrance doors. The house displays unmoulded 17th-century framing, with studding and prominent arch-windbraces, and the floor joists are set on edge. Evidence suggests that the house may have originally been built without an upper floor, as arch-braces to the tiebeams pass through the floor at certain points.
