Heather Cottage Rose Cottage

Heather Cottage and Rose Cottage are two houses located on Mill Lane in Godalming. They date from the 17th century, likely from the mid-17th century, with later additions and alterations from the late 17th and 18th centuries, as well as significant changes in the 20th century. The buildings are timber-framed with plastered wattle and daub infill, and part of the structure is underbuilt in painted brick. They have a plain tile roof and are two storeys high, comprising six bays in total. The original house had four unevenly sized bays, with an additional bay added at each end and a 20th-century side outshut on the right end.

The timber framing features square panels, with larger panels on the first floor and one tension brace on the left side of the first floor. No 7, Heather Cottage, consists of two bays, with the right bay featuring a flush-panelled door, a six-pane casement window, and a similar window above. The left bay's ground floor is obscured by the adjoining property, while the first floor is tile-hung with a small window. Between the two houses is an archway that has small-scantling timber-framed side walls.

No 9, Rose Cottage, has a 20th-century part-glazed door beneath a bracketed hood, with a three-light leaded window to the left and a small-pane window to the right. Above, there are two three-light small-pane casements. The outshut on the right has a late 20th-century small-pane window. The buildings feature several stacks: one at the left end, one at the rear of the ridge in bay two, one at the rear of the ridge in bay four, and an external stack at the right end. The rear of the cottages shows a ground floor of painted brick, while the first floor has timber framing with a tension brace on the right. The left-hand added bay uses thinner scantling timbers, and the right-hand added bay incorporates some reused timbers. No 9 also has a small stair window on the left. Inside, No 9 features 17th-century chamfered spine beams and joists.
