Description

Nos. 28, 30, and 32 on Roseacre Lane are cottages dating from the 18th century and later. The ground floor is made of brick, while the first floor is weatherboarded. The right gable end features a stone ground floor with tile-hanging above. The cottages have a plain tile roof and are positioned at right angles to the road. They are two storeys high, resting on a stone plinth, with a hipped roof and an off-centre ridge stack located to the right. The windows are irregularly arranged, with three first-floor casements: two towards the left end and one towards the right. There are three 20th-century doors; half-glazed doors for No. 28 at the left end and No. 30 towards the centre, and a glazed door for No. 32 at the right end.

The left return wing, which faces the road, is from the 19th century. It has a stone ground floor and a brick first floor, and it is also two storeys high with a central ridge stack. There is a small casement window on each floor at the left end, with a half-glazed segmental-headed door immediately to the right. Behind the main block, there are three parallel wings that are two storeys high, featuring stone gables on the ground floor with tile-hanging above and plain tile roofs.
