Description

Rose Cottage is an early 17th-century house located on the east side of Wingham High Street. It is timber-framed and exhibits exposed close studding with plaster infill, with a red brick underbuilding to the front elevation. The roof is covered in plain tiles, and includes a central stack cluster. The house has two storeys, and a hipped roof. On each floor, there are two wooden casement windows. A boarded door is situated on the left-hand side. The interior contains a clasped purlin roof. Originally designed with a two-bay lobby entry plan, the doorway was later moved to the left.

Local climate

Rose Cottage sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 90% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 59% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 10 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 90% of listed buildings. Of these, 6 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
