Description

Rose Cottage is a house dating from the late 18th century to early 19th century, with a later 19th-century addition and 20th-century alterations. It is constructed of slatestone rubble and features an asbestos slate roof with ridge tiles and gable ends, along with gable end stacks that have brick shafts.

The house has a two-room plan with a central entrance, and each room is heated from a gable end stack. There is a single-storey lean-to attached at the left end, which is a later 19th-century addition.

The exterior is two storeys high and has a nearly symmetrical three-window front. All windows are 20th-century, featuring two-light eight-pane casements. The central entrance has a 20th-century glazed porch with a pitched roof and an inner 20th-century door. The right end of the house is blind, while the left end includes the single-storey lean-to with a slate roof. The interior has not been inspected.
