Description
Roselea is a house dating from the 16th century, with alterations made in the early 19th century. It is a two-storey, two-window building. The house is timber-framed and plastered, and the right-hand gable has an upper floor that is jettied and supported by four exposed oak brackets. The roof is covered with plain tiles and features a 19th-century axial chimney constructed of red brick. The windows are small-pane casements from the early 19th century; those on the ground floor have transoms. The early 19th-century entrance doorway has sunk pilasters supporting an open pediment with a modillioned soffit, and it contains a four-panelled door. In the early 19th century, the building was extended to the left and divided into two tenements. The second house, known as Astrea, is not of particular architectural or historical interest.
