Description
Rosemary Cottage is a cottage that likely represents an early 19th-century rebuilding of the end of a larger earlier house, with the remainder of this house now known as Fippenny Cottage. The cottage is rendered with a brick gable end, which probably contains timber framing internally. It features a tiled gable-ended roof with a brick stack located at the right-hand rear eaves. The building is two storeys high and has a three-window range. On the ground floor, there are two 19th-century four-pane sash windows flanking a part-glazed door that is set beneath a gabled open porch. To the left, there is a small single light window. On the upper floor, there are two two-light casements with horizontal glazing bars, one of which is part of a dormer. The cottage is included for its group value.
