Description
Rose Cottage is a house dating from the 18th century, with modifications made in the late 19th century. The left gable end features an exposed 18th-century collar-truss, while the right gable wall and the extreme right of the front are made from uncoursed chalk rubble from the same period. The front and rear of the house are constructed with late 19th-century Flemish bond brick, and it has a thatched roof with brick and chalk stacks. The building has a two-unit plan and is one and a half stories tall, with a two-window range. There are segmental brick arches above a late 19th-century four-panelled door, which has two glazed panels, and a 20th-century three-light casement window. The roof is gabled, with a late 19th-century stack on the left end and an 18th-century projecting stack on the right end. At the rear left, there is a late 19th-century brick lean-to. The cottage is included for its group value.
