Description
Rose Cottage is a cottage that likely dates back to the 17th century and was refurbished in the late 19th century. It features plastered cob on stone rubble footings, with one end rebuilt in brick. There is one stone rubble or cob stack and another brick stack, both topped with 19th-century brick, and the roof is thatched. The cottage has a three-room plan and faces southeast. An axial stack serves back-to-back fireplaces located between the center and the right (northeastern) rooms, while the left end stack is in the rebuilt brick wall.
The cottage is two storeys high and has a regular but not symmetrical three-window front. All windows are 20th-century iron-framed casements, except for the first-floor right window, which is 19th-century with glazing bars. The main doorway is located left of center and is a 20th-century door behind a contemporary gabled porch with a tiled roof. There is also a secondary plank door at the right end. The roof is half-hipped to the right and gable-ended to the left. The left end wall is made of whitewashed brick, which imitates quoins on the front.
Inside, all beams are either covered or have been removed, and the fireplaces are blocked. The roof has not been inspected but is reported to include original A-frame trusses.
